wifi self-assigned ip
For some reason my macbook pro, running lion (10.7.3) sometimes seems incapable of getting an ip address. Every ipad and iphone in the house manages to connect to the wifi network but the mac book pro is not able to. when i hook it up via internet this works fine but when i get on wifi, i get one of those 169 starting ip addresses and the message that the computer cannot get an IP address and cannot access the internet.
really frustrating.
i tried:
- restarting
- deleting the airport system preference file
- deleting the airport network fin in keychain
- deleting the airport network interface in preferences
and still no imporvement.
can anyone suggest something?
