Windows 7
Control Panel - Network and Internet - Network and Sharing - Change Adapter Settings - Local Area Connection - Properties - Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPV4).

IP address - 87.120....
Subnet mask - 255.255.255.0 (depending upon your own network configuration)
Default gateway - routers ip address

Preferred DNS server - router or other DNS server

I have no idea what kind of network your running so your going to have to fill in the blanks. Also the Linux and Windows machine cannot have the same ip if they will both be on at the same time.

If you have two separate computers connected at the same time with one running Linux and the other running Windows, the IP addresses cannot be the same; they can be in the same neighborhood, for example 87.120.xx.3 and 87.120.xx.4.

If you are dual-booting one computer and sometimes you run Windows and other times you reboot into Linux, you can have the same address.

If you are connected directly to a DSL or cable modem, with only one ethernet port, the modem can't be connected to more than one computer at a time anyway, so it won't matter. Looking at your IP address, 87.120.xx.yy, I suspect that's the case.

Look , if i write in windows ipconfig/renew , do we give me a new ip on windows and the internet will be working well ?? About the linux nothing wrong wouldn't going to happend? I mean if i write it in cmd ipconfig/renew do we give me a new ip but the Linux will be hurt ? I mean the ip will change or something else or nothing or the linux will be normally with this ip that i am at the moment ?

With one word if i write in the cmd ipconfig/renew the system or what is there do he give me a new ip and do i will have internet , and if yes , the linux will something happend or nothing , the ip will still been 87.120.... or ?

Pls tell

changing your IP in Windows has nothing to do with Linux unless both are running at the same time.

Also the address 87.120.x.x i am guessing is a ISP assigned address and not a LAN address so you dont have much control over it.

As already mentioned your questions seemed to be windows related and would be better i a windows forum.

This, pretty much.

I would reset your modem/whatever and/or contact your ISP to make sure everything is good if the modem reset doesn't work.

If you could explain how exactly you are connecting to the internet and tell us how your network is setup it would be much easier to help your solve your problem. Like haqking said if your having a windows issue then its would be better served in a windows forum or try Google.

I only wanted on windows to have network , 1 person told me this thing , Start>Run>cmd>ipconfig/renew , but he didn't tell me more , i know only that if i write this in the black console it will give me IP and i will have internet , but i don't know is that true,
or should do more things to do this thing and have Internet. He told me that linux's ip (REAL IP) won't be changed or somethink else , no problems with 1 word , but i don't know is this true.
Pls tell if that is true and what more i have to do to have network on windows. I want to have network on windows 1-2 days max.
