• If you are connecting to a DHCP server, check your cabling and connec-
tion. If you require TCP/IP to be configured, check with your network
administrator or your Windows documentation for proper settings.
• If you don't have a DHCP server on your network and your network
setup doesn't require TCP/IP, you may remove the TCP/IP component
from Windows' networking. To do this, click on Start, Settings, Control
Panel, then double-click on Network. Click once on the component
entry with the words TCP/IP and Linksys or TCP/IP on its own, then
click on the Remove button. Click OK when finished and restart your
PC. If the problem persists, try running the diagnostics on page 49.
