Scott Hanselman had a useful
blog post, listing steps to reset the whole network IP stack in Windows Vista. It solved my problem the first time, so I thought I would pass It along here.
- Go to the Start Menu, type cmd and right click or (Ctrl + Shift and hit Enter), and select "Run As Administrator"
- Type the following commands, each followed by pressing enter.
- ipconfig /flushdns
- nbtstat -R
- nbtstat -RR
- netsh int reset all
- netsh int ip reset
- netsh winsock reset
Or another helpful command:
- netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
Hope this might solve any problems you might have with Vista's new networking stack.
