Mac osx - Ethernet had self assigned up address - wont connect to interbet
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-PA211KIT
Hardware Version : Not Clear
Firmware Version :
ISP : Bt broadband
Ethernet has a self assigned IP Address and will not connect to the internet.
I am on - Mac os X - 10.7.5
Using a BT Broadband Router, my power mac is connected to the network via TP-Link Plug POWERLINE. This has worked great for ever!
A week ago, my web connection dropped, network settings say "Ethernet 1 is active and has a self assigned IP Address and will not connect to the internet"
This seems to be a popular thread and I have followed all the answers I can find and the problem remains.
I also run a Powerbook on the wireless internet and other appliances such as, iPads, iPhones, and the wireless is fine.
My sky box and Xbox 360 (both ethernet via TP-Link) also have NO connection.
When I turn my laptops wireless off and try the ethernet cable (tried a new one too) instead, there is the same SELF-ASSIGNED IP ADDRESS issue.
This point me to the router or TP-Link network. I have replaced the router, same errors.
On my Powermac I have -
Deleted 'system configuration from the system folder - as advised by apple.
Tried swapping from DCHP, DCHP Manual and renewing lease etc.
Could anyone help at all? I am lost now as how to solve the problems.
All my TP-Link power line extenders show the correct lights, i.e., all on and yellow.
I am not experienced in networks, this is driving me mad now!
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
