    In fairness, I had this problem a couple of times when I first started here. This forum can be a little slow to respond after the submit button is pressed, and I remember assuming I had timed out. So I resubmitted and voila, double post.

    My name is Hopester, and it's been eight months since my last double post.

    You need to have a NIC to even have an address.

    And you need to connect to a DHCP server or put in an address as a static address.  Unless you're running DHCP on a computer at home then you need the internet for an address.

    Oh and btw, if you are running DHCP at home for some reason, don't use it on the internet, your ISP won't like that very much.
