I tried doing this:

Press Start > Run
Type in:
cmd
Press enter
Type in:
ipconfig /release
Press enter. (your net connection will die for now, but this next command fixes it)
Then type in:
ipconfig /renew
Press enter.
Then type in:
ipconfig /flushdns

but it says the required operation requires elevation when i tried ipconfig /release


later i tried Press Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt > right click > "Run as administrator"

then it says windows ip configuration
no operation can be performed on Local Area Connection while it has its media disconnected


please help
