DHCP failed in WLAN

[staceyfanner]

A real newbie here - I need some help on understanding why my WLAN's DHCP configuration is failing on the relevant laptops. It seems to be working fine on the PCs so I'm thinking there is some issue with my WAP.

Attached is my .pkt and the config table that I've been using:

Device Name	IPv4 Address	Subnet Mask	Default Gateway	DNS Address
BranchR Gig0/0/1	192.168.91.1	255.255.255.0	-	-
BranchR Gig0/0/0	DHCP	-	-	-
BranchSrv	192.168.91.2	255.255.255.0	192.168.91.1	127.0.0.1
BranchAP	192.168.91.3	255.255.255.0	192.168.91.1	192.168.91.2
BranchPr	192.168.91.4	255.255.255.0	192.168.91.1	192.168.91.2
PC0	DHCP
PC1	DHCP
LAPTOP1	DHCP
LAPTOP2	DHCP
LAPTOP3	DHCP

Yes, issue with my WAP.  WLAN's DHCP side of wireless network is not enabled. Go to Linksys GUI, then  Setup page for Network. Bellow Internet setup there is a Network setup page. click enable DHCP, scroll down to see and click on Save changes; Always save changes for those GUI web based wireless routers.

Thanks so much Martin L - It has worked!

I think I've just got confused as we were also asked to configure a company specific AP which asked for the DHCP to be disabled as per the below

• SSID: BranchTF
• Security: WPA2 Personal
• Encryption:AES
• Passphrase: BranchTF1!
• DHCP: Disabled

Is there another setting? For example, on the wireless tab of the GUI

that DHCP: Disabled is wrong; it should be enabled.  probably mistake/ misprint.
