Hi,
My problem is that my wireless card detects the wireless access point
but the router's dhcp server fails to initiate the computer with a
valid ip. Thus getting a random ip number and the 255.255.0.0 netmask
instead of 255.255.255.0
I have a
1) Modem (Motorolla Surfboard)
2) Router with DHCP enabled (D-Link DI-604)
3) Wireless Access Point with DHCP disabled (D-Link DWL-2000AP)
4) Win2k that connects well both by a ethernet network card and a
wireless network card.
5) XP that connects well via an ethernet card but doesn't want to work
with the wireless card(Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG).
Any ideas
TIA
Michael
