MJ said:Same issues, the wireless card is still trying to acquire a network address. Is this what it should be doing?
When the Wii does the network test the Laptop constantly switches between connected and not connected and eventually tries to acquire an address again when the Wii failed.
Is it possible that the network admins somehow block this? I don't think it is, but maybe?
Is it an issue that my ethernet card has the subnet 255.255.254.0
Can I try something with the IP of the DHCP server from my ethernet card?
Is the issue maybe that my wireless is constantly trying to acquire an address? Or is that normal, because that's what worries me.
If it keeps aquiring an IP address, it's still using DHCP or for some reason keep switching to DHCP. You'll have to find a way for it to maintain the manual setting you put in.
Another note, make sure the wireless card isn't connected to another ad hoc network.
It wouldn't matter what subnet your Ethernet card is on.
Just the wireless card and wii wireless card has to be on the same network.
Can I try something with the IP of the DHCP server from my ethernet card?
Exactly what are you trying to do?
