Netgear MA101 - Cannot obtain IP address
Xref: kermit microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web:193702
I'm trying to get my Netgear MA101 wireless network adaptor to work with Windows XP. It is supposed to work with the Netgear ME102 access point downstairs providing me with internet access. However, when I set the software and everything up as instructed, the IP address is being assigned by the computer (i.e. 169.254.12.231), and therefore I cannot connect to the internet. Is this a known problem, and if so how can I fix it? Thanks in advance, Chris. |

They have to be the same on the access point and on the MA101: SSID (case sensitive) Encryption Type Encryption Key Is MAC address filtering enabled on the access point? If so, add the MA101 to the allowed list. -- Best Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.
