I have an issue getting a Tibook to grab DHCP info. Setup is cable modem->netgear router->netgear ap. I have a Dell running XP with a netgear PCMCIA card, connects fine. The Tibook will associate, but self assign it's IP. It only connects if you manually put in an IP and DNS information. Since it will associate and I can ping the router I am guessing it's not an AP issue. Any ideas?

Nope. Initially it wouldn't associate, but I got that fixed by flashing the firmware on the AP (Netgear ME103).
