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 this computer is connected to.
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™, reinstall your network adapter. Please refer
to your adapter manual for information on how to do this.

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 15 for information.

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

1. Open a DOS window as described above.
