If you have an IP address that starts with 169.254.xxx.xxx then
see the next section.

If you have another IP address configured, then see section C.

B. I am getting an IP Address that starts with

169.254.xxx.xxx

If you are getting this IP address, then you need to check that
you are properly connected to the Wireless Barricade.

Confirm that you have a good link light on the Wireless Barricade
for the port to which this computer is connected. If not, please try
another cable.

If you have a good link light, please open up a DOS window as
described in the previous section and type ipconfig/renew.

If you are still unable to get an IP address from the Wireless
Barricade, please try rebooting your PC.

C. I have another IP Address displayed.
If you have another IP address listed, then the PC may not be
configured for a DHCP connection. Please refer to “Configuring
Client TCP/IP” on page 11 for information.

Once you have confirmed that your computer is configured for
DHCP, then please follow the steps below.

1. Open a DOS window as described above.
