Unable to obtain Server Assigned IP address

[hiazle]

I messed around with the Network adapters settings, while trying to get WiFi to work properly.

Now everytime I connect to ActiveSync via USB, I get the error message, "Unable to obtain Server Assigned IP address". I am sure this is because I set one of the adapters to "Automatic IP", but I don't know which one. Moreso, my Wizard does not access the internet properly when connected via USB.

Could someone please tell me which adapter I wronged, and what setting its supposed to be?

Hi, make this:

Start > settings > connections > Network cards > Remote-NDIS Host > Click Use specific IP address

Enter 169.254.2.1 for IP address
Enter 255.255.0.0 for subnet
Enter 169.254.2.2

It functions on my Wizard...:)

Thanks a lot @Viking..

does the trick for me. I had actually tried that before but I had assigned the IP 169.254.2.2 (thinking that 169.254.2.1 would be the laptop) and I got a "Limited connection", so I just set it back to automatic.
