Check your IP address
After you install your adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server
(i.e. wireless Access Point) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below.
Click on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click OK. (Windows Vista
users type cmd in the Start Search box.)
®
At the prompt, type ipconfig and press Enter.
This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and
the default gateway of your adapter.
If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter
installation, security settings, and the settings
on your Access Point. Some firewall software
programs may block a DHCP request on newly
installed adapters.
