Are you using internet connection sharing via one of the ME boxes? You might be getting you windows-style default IP address from one of them.
I assume you usually have a 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x as your IP address, right? That's what would be coming from the router's DHCP. I, too have a 3400c in a mixed environment with Win 2000 boxes (is ME really 2000 without the steroids? -joke) and when internet connection sharing can't find a "Real" IP address, it gives itself that 169.154.x.x address. Can you access the router via a browser? Make sure it "sees" the 3400c. My router can with software for the PCs that will give a list of all attached nodes (the wireless router, that is). Hope something here helps, Ted "Moreover, I am using win m.e. on 3 of the pcs connected to the network. Coincidence?" -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
