How Do You Restart DHCP Client Service On Vista?
The DHCP Client service on Windows Vista obtains IP addresses from your router or Internet service provider. If the DHCP Client service malfunctions, your computer cannot receive new or updated IP addresses, cutting off Internet access. Restart the DHCP Client service on Vista using Windows Vista’s built-in services tool. Open the Windows Vista Control Panel by clicking “Start,” then “Control Panel.” Open the Administrative Tools folder by clicking “System and Maintenance” in the Control Panel window, then clicking “Administrative Tools.” Open the Services administrative tool by double-clicking “Services.” Scroll down in the list of services in the Services tool window by clicking the scroll bar at the right side of the list. Select “DHCP Client” in the services list by clicking it.
