No IP address from DHCP

Hi there,
I don't get an IP address from DHCP using my cable provider at home (over ethernet). In the office, using Token Ring and company's DHCP server, everything works. The other two PCs on my LAN at home get an IP address without a problem. The configuration used to work for months, I changed nothing. What could be wrong? Should I re-install TCP/IP?

Thanks in advance

Could you explain your setup a little more clearly?

Ok, next try: I have a laptop which I use in the office and at home. In the office, we have a token ring network. Everything works fine.
At home, I have a small Ethernet network, built with a hub (no switch). There are 3 machines connected. My laptop doesn't get an IP address from DHCP from my cable Internet provider, although the other 2 machines get an address. The configuration used to work for months without a problem and I really don't know what I might have changed.

Thanks
refi
