Vista Won't get a DHCP address via Wireless on a MacBook 13"

Asked by kiwistag in Windows Vista, Apple Laptop

Tags: , ,

For some reason Vista won't obtain a DHCP address on the wireless interface on our domain however will do fine via the ethernet port when plugged in. It only seems to be this MacBook that is causing us (consistent) headaches...

The Event logs complain of a semaphore timeout and although we change it Vista does connect to the Wireless AP's and authenticate (802.1x) but also identifies it as an unknown network (probably because it can't get the IP address).
