Access Point Problems

Oct 22, 2005 1 Replies

Does anyone have any comments as to why my access point won't work anymore?



I have a DLink 900+ and have been using it for awhile. The other day I took it off to try it with a different antenna and then when I connected it back to my hub, I started receiving a constant "acquiring network address" message on my laptop and it hasn't connected since.



I think the problem is with my "server" which is just another laptop which is running a basic Windows internet sharing thing. I know the access point works and have reset it, tried to use it's DHCP feature and so on but it just won't let me get through. Also, I can't ping the access point from the laptop which I am trying to use the wireless on.



If there are any suggestions, thank you in advance.

Sounds like the access point isn't properly connected to the DHCP server.
