PROSET Wireless 3945ABG - Not receiving a IP on WRT54GX

Hi ,

I just received a new laptop via work :

Asus V6J - Yohan + PROSET Wireless 3945AGB + Win XP SP2

I'm trying for a couple of days now, to receive a IP adres from my router WRT54GX linksys.

Encryption : I tried everything .
Without encription : when acquiring IP :> problem

I installed the latest drivers.

I set the power management to MAX. Resolved one problem.


Forgot something :
When I received the laptop, It worked only ones. Then afterwards no more.

I restored the laptop with the restore CD, but nothing works

PLEASE HELP

DETAILED event log when using WPA :
attach not working :

So you cannot get an Internal IP when using this Router -

Do you have the latest Firmware from Linksys for the router ?
Have you gone to the Admin Page of the router to check that DHCP is enabled ?
Have you been able to see other wireless networks ?
Are you sure the Wireless service is running on the Laptop (in services)
Are you sure that wireless card supports WPA ? (you did mention no security and it did not work)

Have you checked Microsofts site for any incompatibilities ?

You metioned it worked once - when did it stop working ? What was changed ?

 

Yes, do what daacon said. Might get things working

Maybe try renewing your IP address by:

Start
All Programs
Accessories
Command Prompt
Type in: ipconfig /release and hit enter,
and then ipconfig /renew and then enter

 

1. is the wifi card ON. make sure to check your hardware/software switch to make sure the card is actually ON

2. can u connect to other networks?

3. can u connect via ethernet cable?

4. finally, go to the command prompt and type in 'ipconfig /all' and then post the results here. that will help with fault isolation.

 

This discussion continued over here: http://www.linksysinfo.org/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=12927

The Linksys Router we are using is cutting edge and probably buggy (v1.0 firmware), so it makes sense to continue the discussion in the Linksys expert forum above.
