Can't get IP address from DHCP server

G

Guest

I am using XP Pro on a desktop and have a small home
network (3-4 computers) using a dell wireless router as a
DHCP server. My desktop is not able to obtain an IP
address from the router. It used to be able to and quit
for no know reason. Info below...

-TCP/IP is set to obtain IP/DNS automatically.
-I do have link light on both my NIC and router port.
-Pinging 127.0.0.1 is good.
-Replaced NIC. No help.
-I have tried to assign a unique static address in range
of network. Using the router as gateway, same subnet and
same DNS as all other computers on network are using.
-I have hooked up a laptop to same cable and obtain
address fine.
-I get NO address at all. Not even 169.254.x.x.

I'm lost on what to try next. Anyone with thoughts is
appreciated.
