Dell Pentium II 333 MHz
Windows XP
D-Link DWL-122 (USB)
Can't connect wireless; Get "media disconnected"
IPCONFIG says "media Disconnected.
The DWL-122 shows the power light ON and the "link" light flashing.
Tried a Linksys WUSB11 2.5 (with appropriate driver) couldn't connect
either.
Tried a hard wired NIC and it connects OK
I was not able to find help on D-link or MS' website.
Any help will appreciated

Re: Can't connect wireless; Get "media disconnected"
From your suggested website:
1. Use ipconfig /renew to obtain a new IP.
2. Make sure the green/blue light is on and receives the signal.
3. Update the NIC driver.
4. Check the security settings
5. Try to assign a static IP.
What I did:
1. ipconfig /renew says the device is not available for renewal
2. Power light is on; Link light is still flashing
3. Drivers are current
4. Eliminated firewall, etc
5. Assigned static IP, etc
Tried a known good cable and a Linksys wireless device including installing
its driver
Repeated the above 5 steps on the Linksys device
The computer has five USB ports all check good with my flash drive.
