Recently, when I have to repair my net work connection (which I have to do
periodically), it renews the IP address and all but then says that Windows could not finish repairing the problem because it the following action cannot be completed: Clearing the ARP cache. Everything seems to work fine so is this something I need to be concerned about and how do I correct it and clear the ARP cache. =?Utf-8?B?cGF3aXNl?= |

Thanks for that tip and I'll do that but how important is clearing the ARP
cache and why is it suddenly not being cleared when I do a repair?
