self-assigned IP address
I got this refurbished MBP for Christmas and it hasn't connected to the internet at my home since. I have a cable modem (Cox Communications) and a D-Link wireless router (WBR-2310). My wife's iBook G4 has no problem connecting to our wireless network and neither did my previous iBook or my iPhone. In the "Network Preferences" Menu the AirPort status says "On" and below it it says "AirPort has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the Internet".
My MBP has no trouble connecting wirelessly to other networks but for some reason I can't get it to work at home. I have tried everything I can think of to solve the problem (reseting the router and modem and trying a different modem). I have gotten no help from Apple Phone Support and both times I have talked with them been put on hold to talk with a specialist only to be hung up on after 45 minutes of waiting.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
