simple static ip still doesn't work

[chris635]

Hey bud

   A while back I had problems with simple static ip, you asked me to try a few things but didn't work. I 'v tried again recently but nothing.
First when you set it, it takes. The problem starts when I reboot. It loses the gateway. I have changed dns from open dns to google dns I get the same thing. I have set my router up to use open dns as the default. I even tried to change things manually. Once I reboot I have to disable simple static ip, then reinitialize it. The router is a netgear wnr2000v3. The program used to work before I updated the firmware on this. I have updated twice now. Any ideas?

Very odd. What is really strange is the fact that it works and then you reboot and the gateway doesnt hold.

The network info is stored in the registry. Have you tried setting it manually and see if it still holds?

Yeah I have tried to set manually. I get the same thing.

Let me clarify. I set manually in network and sharing center, not the registry. Where would I go in the registry for that?

You dont set it in the registry, that is just where windows stores it.

The fact that you set it manually and it happens means it isn't my program, but something on the system.

I wonder if it is a permissions problem in the registry. Run my repair registry permissions tool from tweaking.com and see if it helps

Got them.

Glad you got it working. I dont know why it didnt work and how you got it fixed, but at least it is holding the info now at reboot
