Check your IP address

After you install your new D-Link wireless adapter and have established a wireless connection, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be
set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e. router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below.
Windows ® XP/2000 Users
Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click OK.
ipconfig and press Enter.

Windows Vista

administrative access to run this application.
select Yes, OK, or Continue.
ipconfig and press Enter.
If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter installation, security settings, and the settings on your router. Some firewall software programs may block a
DHCP request on newly installed adapters.
