Hi Guys,

pc: Windows NT4 SP6
NIC: 3COM 11mbps Wireless PCI adapter

I have a connection with the WLAN. But don't receive an IP address. I tried a fixed IP address in the range but then I can't ping anything. I tried reserving an IP in DHCP console on MAC address. No luck !

This is the error :

Event ID 1003 may be logged in the System.log file, and visible in Event Viewer with the following detail:

DHCP failed to obtain a lease for the card with network address <12-digit hexadecimal media access control address of the local network adapter>. The following error occurred: The semaphore timeout period had expired.


I googled quite a bit but nothing worked so far.

Who thinks he can help me ?

Bye

Hans
