Hello network admin,
        I am wondering what is happening with wireless networking on campus.   I
have ask the computer center consultants and they had no info.   I have a
new portable that came with wireless built in. I noticed that there is a
wireless router from OMERAD that it can connect to.     Am I allowed to use
this connection and what are the access procedures?
      On a related note,   I have noticed that sometimes when using DHCP
that I get connected to an off campus DHCP server and am assigned an
incorrect DHCP ip address.   If I do a ipconfig /release  and renew,  it
will correct itself but not always on the first try.   Is there a way to
force DHCP to connect to our DHCP server 35.8.2.22 ?   I have set the
default gate way to 35.8.2.3  I am running Win XP pro with all the latest
updates.  Is there anything else that will affect this or cause this problem?
Thanks for your help
Cliff
