SBC dsl ? #2

I have the new 2Wire Router up and running however I am having a problem with the computer at the other end of the house. It is being connected to the router via a 2Wire USB adapter.

The message is "limited access -- network did not assign a network address to the computer". What does this mean and how do I go about assigning an address to this computer.

Thanks ~k

802.11g). Or, as

"Wireless (802.11b) requires that the wireless signal reach the location where the additional computer is located."

Windows XP home. It would be a bit difficult to carry the desktop & monitor closer but I could try.
