[P1] (2 for 1) Still struggling with wireless, and a question about fragments

[B G]

Please provide a little more info, what brand of router? what brand of 
AP?
Even though your Router is assigning address dynamically the setup on 
the AP may overide and not grab one.
Have you actually tried the default IP?
Have you direct connected laptop to access point via crossover cable?
Perhaps reset the AP to factory default and try again.
