I have a Linksys wag54gs wireless router and a linksys wireless-g pci adaptor, i had no problems connecting wirelessly until i had to change the nic to another pci slot, now i only get an IP address and a subnet mask, there's no DNS or WINS or Default gateway.When looking at the wireless connection status it says the porblem occured because the network didn't assign a network address to the computer.I can however connect to the internet via harewire so i'm assuming there's an issue with the wireless nic. is there something i've missed to configure the wireless network correctly?
 
I suggest you try rereading your documentation on both devices and check all your options. I think you may have missed one or more parameters in your setup.
