Check your IP address
After you install your adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e.
wireless router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below.
Click on Start > Run. In the run box type
cmd
and click
OK
. (Windows® 7/Vista®
users type cmd in the Start Search box.)
At the prompt, type
ipconfig
and press
Enter
.
This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and the
default gateway of your adapter.
If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter installation,
security settings, and the settings on your router.
Some firewall software programs may block a DHCP
request on newly installed adapters.
