It may not be the IP address. It could be that you're missing either the 
pxeboot filename or the next server.  What DHCP server are you using? 
If dnsmasq, you want something like:

# boot options for wrap boards
dhcp-vendorclass=wrap,Etherboot-5.3
dhcp-mac=wrap,00:0d:b9:*:*:*
dhcp-boot=net:wrap,pxelinux.0,<server name>,<server addr>

For the actual pxelinux.cfg file, this is what I used:

serial 0 38400
ipappend 1
append console=ttyS0,38400 reboot=bios
default pxe/linux rw initrd=pxe/initrd.lrp init=/linuxrc root=/dev/ram0 
boot=/tftp/192.111.107.33 LRP=etc,inittabs,hdsupp,wget,smbmount

s/192.111.107.33/ with the address of the tftp server serving the .lrp files

"ipappend" replaces a bunch of crap hand coded in the shipping .cfg 
files.  reboot=bios makes reboot work on the wrap, wd1100.o not needed
