my dads computer from kodak recently got a new dell wireless card and somehow it disconfigured our home netgear one. It no longer has an IP address and I can remember the code to get a new one I went to Run CMD, ipconfig and it shows that it does not have one there is also no subnet mask or default gateway. What is the code I need, I thought it was iprenew but that does not work. please halp me. Thanks guys ---

That means it’s not plugged in. It is recognized in the device manager? ---

Check the device manager, Chances are your wireless manager disabled the older card when the newer one was installed. If the Netgear card has a red “X” on it, it is disabled. Also check in “Network Connections” to see if it was disabled there.
