My laptop doesn't recognize ip address on wireless router, EnGenius ESR-1220. Everything else on my pc seems fine.

Limited connectivity
If you get a 'Limited connectivity" on you wireless connection on your laptop, it means that the wireless card on your laptop probably did not get an IP address from the wireless router.
To fix this problem, right click on the wireless icon on the Task bar and then click Repair.
This will force the wireless router to issue a IP address to the wireless card on the laptop.

try to make sure that you got the right IP adress, and also try to be closer little bit to the wireless router.

Usually the router takes of this, and uses the same IP. Login to router via web browser and verify DHCP settings is set to client. Then very Attain DNS Automatically is set. You manual has pics.

There a great article at General Router Setup.

Thumbs and testimonial are welcome!

change the settings in the router set-up utility...
Open INTERNET EXPLORER and. (In the URL address field), enter the IP address for your wireless router ( the DEFAULT GATEWAY. This information should be contained in your router's manual. If you cannot find it, enter "198.168.1.1" as the address. This is usually the default IP address for most routers.do not type "www" just the number
Enter the username and password for your router. This should also be supplied in the router's manual. If you don't have this information, go to routerpasswords.com and find the brand and model of your router. This site lists the default login information for most wireless routers you can try "ADMIN" for user name and "PASSWORD" for passsword.
You should now be able to see your wireless router settings. You can configure your network ports, as well as SSID (wireless network name) and passwords.
choose WPA or WPA2 for the security type- and to make your connection more secure you can "not broadcast the signal" and/or assign MAC addressing.

Hi! I think you have an IP conflict on your laptops. Do this: goto control panel and open the network section and put a fixed IP address for both the laptops, lats say: LapTop1: IP: 192.168.0.10 LapTop2: IP: 192.168.0.20
And put a DNS number in the same section where you put the IP numbers. The DNS number is the IP number of your router. WARNING! your router IP address must be in the same region as your laptops. Lats say Router IP: 192.168.0.1 than your DNS address on your laptops are 192.168.0.1.
Check in the router of some security restriction like how many users can be connected through WiFi connection, check for firewall enabled or disabled, if enabled try disable it and try to connect now.
I hope this solution will help to solve your problem.

I am not familiar with this particular model, but if it sounds like you are looking for content filtering to block certain non-work related websites. If this AP has that ability use it, other wise you may need to manually block sites via Windows Internet Explorer/Firefox or via the Windows firewall or other software antivirus/firewall you are using.

1. connect yellow cable from Actiontec to the internet port (labeled internet)
2. Power cycle the engenius router.
3. login to the Engenius and verify the status. You should an IP Address from the ISP (Internet Service Provider). If not then you will have to verify the IP address from the router.
4.Make sure the laptop the see the wireless connection.
5.Verify the "ESSID" if your router and connect.

if your PC still working and connecting to the internet thru this router, then open command prmpt, enter "ipconfig" and read the ip address of the default gateway. at most simple home networks, that is your router.
