I have 6-7 laptops that will not connect to wireless access points but will connect to wireless routers. I have tried numorus fixes for "acquiring network address", "limited or no connectivity" but have not found a solution to my problem. I can assign a static ip address and it works fine...only problem is the use can't use the laptop outside our network then. Any ideas what to try?

If so, whose WAPs are you trying to connect to?

What are the makes and models of these laptops?
What operating system does each of them run?

Yes they are attached to a domain.
Linksys or D-Link
Toshiba - 3 diffrent models (have 50 laptops of one model types that connect to the same WAPs with no problem and 10 of another model that connect wit no problem)
Windows XP
