Late Morning

Slept late last night, more like 5am or 6am this morning
Had my parents come up to my room and they rang me several times due to tech issues
Woke up, went down to the eCosway room to check what happened
Wow, printer doesn’t work, let’s try to ping it?

C:\>ping 192.168.1.253

Okay, that’s weird, i pinged 192.168.1.253 and it pinged 192.168.1.4 instead
No, i CANNOT do routing tables
I restarted the laptop (and the printer) and was checking the ping again
Same error F4
Okay, let’s go back to the history
Yes, someone reset the printer the other day, but there was no problems
Let’s check the IP for the printer?
And it says Automatic?!
Let’s change it to the old defaults?
