[QUOTE="Mac1992, post: 1007052, member: 135542"] Hi there, You can go to Preferences =>Network =>TCP/IP => click on "renew DHCP lease". If it still doesn't work, go to Preferences => Network => choose another type of connection, click "APPLY", then reselect Airport again (just a network switching exercise, hopefully the refresh will make the Mac connect). This happened to me a few times on my Macs (PM G4, MacBook) at home, but usually after doing this, it will work. Or you can check out Apple Support: [url=http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8858.html]Mac OS X 10.5 Help: Assigning a manual IP address or DHCP?[/url]. I'm not sure whether your ISP gives you a manual or automatic IP address. Hope this helps, Sim:D [/QUOTE]
