CherylMcQ 0 Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 I keep getting the dialog box that WIndows has detected an IP Conflict. I have no idea what the conflict could be. Could I have a virus? When I click on the word Computer, it gives me the IP address 192.168.1.1. The router IP address. What should I do? I have run the scans, and I find nothing. Cheryl
Administrators Marcos 5,461 Posted October 23, 2016 Administrators Posted October 23, 2016 Most likely more devices in your LAN use the IP address 192.168.1.1. Do you have all computers configured to obtain the IP address automatically from a DHCP server?
itman 1,806 Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 This is a bit strange noting that the alert is for your router's address. This usually occurs as noted below: More than likely, one of the computers or devices on your home network has a static ip address, and is duplicating one that is being assigned by DHCP.
