IP Address conflict related problem, error and solution for Windows OS

When we connect our PC or Laptop through a LAN (Local Area Network) with home network, we may receive a common error message "Conflict IP address with another computer". This message confirms that you are using a IP which is already exist in network and same address is not permitted in any network because IP is unique inside any private network or global network (public network which we called real IP). Below I state reasons behind this conflict and resolution for this specific problem.

Reason for this error message:

1. Your configured IP address is used by another system of your existing network, which is currently running and power on.
2. May be you use LAN and a DHCP server at the same computer and your static LAN IP address block same with DHCP IP address block.
3. Multiple Network card installed in your computer and IP addresses of network adapter is same configured.

IP address conflict Problem
IP Address conflict problem
Solution:

1. If you know the network address block, subnet musk, default gateway (if applicable) and unused IP address for your network then reconfigure your network with a new IP address (Set or change IP address) or contact your network administrator to issue a new IP address for you computer or laptop.
2. If you want to keep your current IP address, then you must trace who is using your IP address in your Network by asking your network administrator and request the user to change his IP address to release current address.
3. If you use DHCP and Static LAN simultaneously, then both addresses must be different IP block so that they can not conflict with each other.
4. You can use only DHCP when it is big network, because DHCP assign IP address dynamically so there is no probability to conflict IP address. To know more DHCP please click.

Simplex: In this communication style data can send only and basically it is one way or uni-direction communication. This type of communication is not widely used for transmit trusted data because it can not send any error or control signal to sender terminal. This style of communication is vastly used in Radio and TV where we can see and hear or receive data only but we can not send any information data by the same channel. Half-Duplex: Half-Duplex is another type of communication style where data can and send and receive but not at the same time.
