Check Your IP Address

After you install your new D-Link adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e. wireless

router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below.

Click on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click on the OK.

At the prompt, type ipconfig and press Enter.

This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and the default

gateway of your adapter.

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.

If you are connecting to a wireless network at a hotspot (e.g. hotel,

coffee shop, airport), please contact an employee or administrator

to verify their wireless network settings.
