If you're browsing the web and see a small notification at the bottom of your screen saying 'The Another computer has the same IP address error,' it's because your computer's IP address conflicts with another computer's IP on the same network. This error disrupts your internet connection, but you can resolve it with the following steps.
Fixing the 'The Another computer has the same IP address error'
Step 1: Press the Start button on your screen and type CMD to open the cmd program interface
Step 2: In the CMD window, type the command: ipconfig/all to view all the IP addresses of your computer and others on the same network. From there, identify the IP address that matches your computer.
* If your computer uses static IP, access Network connection, select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click Properties
- In the new window, enter a different static IP address for your computer from the IP addresses of other machines but within the same network
* In case of using DHCP, open the CMD window and type Ipconfig /release
- Next, type the command line ipconfig/renew
Then, check your computer's IP address again using the ipconfig command to see if the old IP address line still appears. If it's still duplicated, restart your computer and check again.
