It means 2 or myb more computer are sharing the same address. Every computer or device in a network will be given an IP address. This way, the network knows who requested something, and to who should it return the response. If 2 computer have the same address, it will cause an IP conflict. IP conflict can happen to both static and dynamic IP configuration but it is very rare for network with static ip configuration to experience IP conflict.
Example, computer A were given the IP address 192.168.0.110.. then computer B were also given the address 192.168.0.110. if computer A send a request example facebook.com, then computer B request google.com. The network will identify that that a computer with IP address 192.168.0.110 is requesting both facebook.com and google.com. This is wrong. Thus the network will shows IP conflict error. The fastest way to solve this is by opening command prompt to either one of the computer and type:
ipconfig /release
-press enter, and then
ipconfig /renew
-and press enter
