Hi There,

I have a dell wireless 1490 dual band wireless laptop running xp sp2. I can see wireless ap's using the utility site monitor, however, I can't connect to any AP's and get an ip address.

I have tried using windows and the dell wireless to manage the connection with no success.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

as you mentioned you've tried both utilities already...

But just to let you know, you have to use only one utility at a time. You should use only windows xp's wireless zero configuration or dell's utility. Otherwise, they will create a conflict with each other,making you not get online wirelessly.

also may I know what is the name of your ap--dell is for your wireless adapter right,or is dell for your access point as well?
