Access Point Problems

Does anyone have any comments as to why my access point won't work
anymore?

I have a DLink 900+ and have been using it for awhile. The other day I
took it off to try it with a different antenna and then when I
connected it back to my hub, I started receiving a constant "acquiring
network address" message on my laptop and it hasn't connected since.

I think the problem is with my "server" which is just another laptop
which is running a basic Windows internet sharing thing. I know the
access point works and have reset it, tried to use it's DHCP feature
and so on but it just won't let me get through. Also, I can't ping the
access point from the laptop which I am trying to use the wireless on.

If there are any suggestions, thank you in advance.

Sounds like the access point isn't properly connected to the DHCP server.
