Linksys Wireless card reverts to DHCP.
I am having a problem with a Linksys USB wireless network adapter. I have configured the IP address several times on the adapter and for some unknown reason, the device will revert to DHCP. The device is in a Windows 2000 box.
Has anyone experienced this before? Any recommendations?
Thank you.

is there a network cable plugged into the onboard nic while you use the linksys usb network adapter ?
and change IP setting there if you need.
In normal condition you would need to assign ip for wireless network.
it is better if it is on DHCP unless you want to use any Xbox or any other specific purpose.
if this doesn't solve please advise what do you want to achive from you wireless card.
hope it helps
