How To Uninstall and Reinstall TCP/IP in Win-Vista

How To Uninstall and Reinstall TCP/IP in Win-Vista

The first place to start is to run the native Vista repair feature: 

  1. Click Start
  2. Type "Network" in Start Search
  3. Click on Network and Sharing Center in the results
  4. Click on Diagnose and repair (bottom of left list)
  5. Run through the prompts to repair the connection.

If that doesn't fix the situation, then a manual reset of both Winsock and the TCP/IP stack would be in order.

 

 1. Winsock

      1.    Click on Start
      2.    Type CMD in Start Search
      3.    Right click on the result and run as Administrator
      4.    netsh winsock reset [Enter]
      5.    exit [Enter]
      6.    Restart the system

 2. TCP/IP Protocol

     1.    Bring up the command prompt authenticated as Administrator (steps 1-3 just above)
     2.    netsh int ip reset [Enter]
     3.    exit [Enter]
     4.    Restart the system
