Windows Issue

[Ulukia]

Senario Equipment:
Windows XP Pro SP2
Dell Laptop
Internal Dell Truemobile B/G Wireless Card
ZyXEL G-1000 AP

Interesting issue.

Wireless card will not obtain an IP address via DHCP. When a repair is attempted, Windows reports that 'TCP/IP is not enabled'. TCP/IP is a component of the adapter and is checked with 'obtain automatically' for both IP and DNS. The wireless card is not in a network or MAC bridge either.

Any ideas other than driver corruption?

Go to Administrative Tools, Services .. be sure that both TCP / IP Netbios Helper
and also DHCP Client are both set to Automatic Startup
