[QUOTE="rgivans, post: 146970"] Yeah I would agree. Its gotta be the DHCP acting up. If you dont connect when the iBook is solo then you might need to manually configure the IP address for the ibook. Its pretty easy to do. Your going to want to check this anyways. When connected, open your wireless network preferences. It will then show you DHCP Automatic (most likely). The numbers will be in the area of 192.168.1 or 0. XXX the last 3 numbers is what you want to change. When I first started using my ibook on my PC network I kept getting IP Conflicts and I just simply had to alter the last number pretty much. YOur main PC might be 192.168.1.100 or 101. Just change your iBook to 109 or something where it wont interfere with the other IP numbers. Let me know if you need any other help or advice. Good luck :bomb: [/QUOTE]
