wireless usb adapter

[Peter34]

Is it wrong to add a gateway ip addresses to my wireless adapter that I have setup for DHCP?

For instance if if I right click my wireless adapter, go to properties, click on Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), click on Obtain IP address Automatically, then I click on Advance, and add an Gateway IP addresses.

This IP address is the addresses to my DHCP server. I have two different DHCP servers with different IP pools. But sometimes the wireless USB adapter gets the wrong IP addresses.

I was wondering if this helps the wireless adapter to point to the right DHCP server when it is requesting a IP address?

Sorry for my ignorance in networking, I hope someone can help me with this question.

Thanks,

Peter

The first question I have is why do you have two different DHCP servers and how do you know? Next, is this a home network? Or a business network? If you're using DHCP, the gateway should fill in automatically and you shouldn't need to put anything in there.
