    Hi, im having some problems connecting to a wifi network. When i type the password, i get that "i can connect to that network but i cant access the internet because i dont have an ip asigned"

    How can i fix it? Why do i need to get an ip asigned and how can i get one?

    Thanks, fuser

    Is this wifi network your own? Or is it a public one?

    Did you restrict wireless access to specified stations?

    How many computers/servers do you have on this wifi network? And how many ip adresses do you have with your provider?

    if you're behind a router, just set a static ip on the same block.
