Troubleshooting
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 Router.
Confirm that you have a good link light on the Router 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 Router, 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 12 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.
2.Type ipconfig/release.
