If you have an IP address that starts with 169.254.xxx.xxx then
see the next section.
If you have another IP address configured, then see section C.
B. I am getting an IP Address that starts with
169.254.xxx.xxx.
If you are getting this IP address, then you need to check that
you are properly connected to the Wireless 11g Router.
Confirm that you have a good link light on the Wireless 11g
Router for the port to which this computer is connected. If not,
please try another cable.
If you have a good link light, please open up a DOS window as
described in the previous section and type ipconfig/renew.
If you are still unable to get an IP address from the Wireless 11g
Router, reinstall your network adapter. Please refer to your
adapter manual for information on how to do this.
C. I have another IP Address displayed.
If you have another IP address listed then the PC may not be
configured for a DHCP connection. Please refer to “Configuring
Client TCP/IP” on page 14 for information.
Once you have confirmed that your computer is configured for
DHCP, then please follow the steps below.
1.
Open a DOS window as described above.
