I can't seem to get my wireless connection to work on XP. I found that there is no IP address assigned to the adapter. I have gone into command mode and released the IP, then I tried to renew it, but it doesn't work. I have uninstalled the wireless adapter and reinstalled it, but no luck. I had this working before, but now it just doesn't want to connect. Any ideas?

Thanks

York

Nevermind. I got this to work finally. I updated the firmware on my wireless router, then I deleted the network connection. After that, I added the network back, and it took. I'm not sure if it was just the firmware update on the router that did it, but I'm up and running on XP.
