To switch from Intel to Windows, right-click on the Intel Wireless icon in the “System Tray” and look for an option to switch to Windows as the wireless manager. I suggest, if applicable, switching to Windows as the wireless manager to solve the problem no matter what wireless device you have. The cause had to do with a glitch with the Intel manager or a “tug-of-war” between it and WinXP. Turned off the tray icon for the Intel manager (This may not be necessary) Changed the wireless manager from Intel to Windows. Let me give some specs first on my laptop: After weeks of research and trying many suggestions, I finally found the answer to the problem. I had the problem with my wireless LAN icon often displaying “acquiring network address.” The internet worked in spite of the problem. If you find any other solutions please post them in the comments below. Once that was there, I was able to use the Global VPN Client. Once installed, I have a 'Sonic Wall Virtual NIC 2' in my device manager.

Chose the Manual install method (Advanced) Selected 'Network Adapters'. Your setup may differ, but the process should be similar. I simply went up to the top of the tree, right clicked -> Add Legacy Hardware. No more “Acquiring Network Address” or “Renewing Your IP Address” for me. Now I can connect to my secure wireless network with no problems. Once you have a command prompt, first type “ipconfig /flushdns”.On Windows XP, click Start, Run, type cmd, click Ok.When “cmd.exe” appears under Programs, right click it and select “Run as administrator”. On Windows Vista, click the Windows Orb, type “cmd.exe”.When the modem is completely online, plug in the wireless router.Wait 60 seconds, then plug in the modem.Here’s the procedure that finally fixed it for me. But until I performed the steps below nothing worked. I did all the basic stuff like updating the wireless card driver, unplugging and plugging stuff back in, right clicking and selecting Repair in Windows XP and click Diagnose and Repair in Vista. But it would seem to get continually search for, but never acquire a network address or renew the IP address. I would get constant messages like “Acquiring Network Address” or “Renewing Your IP Address”. I recently ran into a problem with a wireless network card getting stuck while acquiring a network address.
