Q

Your home network is connected to the Internet through a 512 Mb per second DSL line. Your ISP providing you with a small office home office router that provides for 100 Mb per second Internet ports for your home office and one DSL port for connecting the network to the Internet. The SoHo router has a built in DHCP server that is used automatically configure workstations with an IP address, default gateway address, and DNS server address. However, today you are unable to access the Internet. The browser reports that it cannot find the URLs that you are requesting. Using the ipconfig command, you verify that the workstation is receiving correct IP address parameters. You tried entering tracert 137.65.1.2 at command prompt and found that you were able to reach the server on the Internet without any issues. What is causing this problem?

– Your ISPs DNS server is down
– Automatic private IP addressing has assigned a non-routable IP address to your workstation
– Your ISPs DSL service maybe down
– The SoHo router isn’t working properly
– Your built-in DHCP server isn’t working properly
