Problem with wireless network-anyone help?

This usually is related with the DHCP IP assignment. Try to config the IP of your machine manually with the same three first segments of the IP of the server. The fourth segment can be from 001 to 254 but don't choose the same of your server network ( that usually uses either 001 or 254). The most common setting is to apply the IP to something like 192.168.###.### for LAN's. You'll need also to know which is the gateway IP of the server to bypass the internal server's firewall, having this way free access to web resources without having to tweak the server's settings.
