| Re: Vista sleep and Default Gateway issue - KB933872 Hello,
I have a possible solution but I won't be able to test it out until later on
tonight.
Set the script to run when the computer resumes from sleep. The easiest way
to do this is: a: Open the Windows Event Viewer application. b: Find a
'Power-Troubleshooter' event with ID 1 ('The system has resumed from sleep')
c: Right-click on the event and choose 'Add task to this event' and follow
the prompts to create the task. d: Change the task properties (you may need
to do this through Scheduled Tasks) - the script needs to run with highest
privileges and even when user is not logged on.
For the script you can use something like this and save it as a .vbs file
Set objShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
objShell.run("%comspec% /k ipconfig /release")
objShell.run("%comspec% /k ipconfig /renew")
Cheers,
Donald Robb
