Thanks

1. Disclose the manufacturer and model number. We can then supply
the default IP address.

Default IP Addresses from one of my older postings:
192.168.0.1 (Dlink)
192.168.0.5 (Ugate 3200)
192.168.0.50 (Dlink DWL900)
192.168.0.254 (SMC2526W AP, Eumitcom)
192.168.1.1 (Netgear etc)
192.168.1.2 (Some Proxim)
192.168.1.20 (SMC 2755)
192.168.1.201 (USR 5430)
192.168.1.240 (Ovislink-AP mode, Linksys WRE54G)
192.168.1.241 (Ovislink-Bridge mode)
192.168.1.245 (Linksys WAP54G)
192.168.1.246 (Linksys WAP55AG)
192.168.1.251 (Linksys WAP11 v2.8)
192.168.1.254 (Linksys WRT54G v1.1)
192.168.2.1 (Belkin, SMC)
192.168.2.254 (Belkin)
192.168.123.254 (USR 8054, Asante)
192.168.254.254 (Cayman, Siemens)

2. Scan for the address using nmap as in:
nmap -T5 -sP 192.168.1.0/24

3. If you know the MAC address, set a temporary IP address with:
arp -s 192.168.1.22 00-00-00-00-00-00
where the IP address is something that's in the Class C IP block of
your existing LAN, and the 00-00-...-00 is the MAC address of the game
adapter. Then use:
http://192.168.1.22
to connect to the game adapter and extract the real IP address. This
doesn't always work.

4. If you get lucky, run:
arp -a
and look for the MAC address of your game adapter. If you're lucky
and the IP address is in the range of the LAN, then it will show here.

Methinks #1 has the best chance of working.

This only works from a default state where there is no IP address. If it
already has one, this won't work.

The Netgear MA101 rev B is a USB client adapter. It has no default IP
address. For that matter, it has no IP address of its own.
http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/ma101.asp
It is also not a "game adapter" which is usually an ethernet device.
Are you sure this is the model number?

If you're looking for the current IP address, and you are running some
Windoze mutation, run:
Start -> Run -> cmd <enter>
IPCONFIG
The IP address listed will be the address of your MA101.

If the IP address shown is 0.0.0.0 then wait about 30 more seconds for
DHCP to do its thing.

If the IP address shown in 169.254.xxx.xxx, then DHCP failed to
deliver an IP address to your MA101 client radio. The most common
mistake is a mismatch between WAP encryption keys in your unspecified
router and your MA101. Use Hex keys if you have two different brands
of equipment.

If the IP address shown is 192.168.1.xxx (or something similar), then
it's working and that's your IP address.

If you're using Ad-Hoc instead of Infrastructure mode (i.e. you don't
have an access point or router), then life is quite different. You
will need to manually assign your own IP address as there is no DHCP
server in Ad-Hoc mode.

I'm sure of the model. It was at a friends house that needed two of these
for the networked computer that have used up the wired ports already and I
got it to work. I see what you mean I can't use it with the xbox but I got
it to work at the friends computers and he's happy. You have been very
helpful.
Thank you

Do I need the IP address obtained through cmd then ipconfig to add wep
security to the connection. I know how to get to the router configuration
window. I'll give it a try with your suggestion.
