[QUOTE="beeryce, post: 706859, member: 63924"] [b]Getting rid of WEP worked for me![/b] I have a DLink WBR-1310 and Leopard 10.5.4 on my Macbook Pro and was experiencing the same "Self-Assigned IP" problem after having had my MBP and router for at least a year and having no problems. I went into wireless settings and changed my encryption to "WPA2 Wireless Security (Enhanced)". Under the "Cipher Type" I selected "AUTO" and set it to "Personal". I created a passphrase, confirmed it, and saved my settings. It re-started my router, I entered the new passphrase* and it connected no problem! I was really excited, and thankful to have found all I could on this site about the problem, so I decided to post my exact solution for those who were having the problem! Thanks!! *This window requested a "WEP Password". I entered the WPA passphrase I set up previously though and all worked just fine! Any explanation to this? [/QUOTE]
