I have a good wireless connection on the laptop but I noticed the IP adress of the laptop appears in a different range which I think is invalid. I believe this is assigned by the DHCP service which is running on the laptop. I have used the IPCONFIG /RENEW command without success. I even re-installed XP. Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Thanks.
