Dell mini-10 won’t connect to N network

Hello,

I have a Dell mini-10 with an N card (a mini 1010 to be specific) that I cannot get to fully connect to my Linksys WRT160N router. I can at some level connect as it asks for the router password and I enter it and it says that I’m connected. The odd part is that the router will never give me an IP address.

I know the N card in the mini 10 works at some level as I’ve connected to many G networks. I’ve even tried locking the WRT160N down to G only still with no luck.

I know the router works as it connects to my Macbook pro which has G card in it.

Any ideas? I’m baffled.

Thanks.

Jack
