Default Eternal "Aquiring network address" on network card

just recieved new ram in replacment from the last batch of faulty stuff. few thats over, then oh crap its not connecting!
got a Netgear wg311t network card to go with netgear wgt624 router. but the network is always either aquiring network address (IP address i believe) or just not connected. i have turned the router off fr a while and then on. I have selected the automatic allocation of IP and DNS in the network settings as well. i also updated the firmware for the router.
it just attempts to connect then stops, then attempts then stops etc.
any help or suggestion would be appretiated.
thanks rob

Have you tried rebooting your PC? I have had this problem with a WPN111 and a reboot has always worked (so far..)

What firmware/driver versions are you running?
The latest for the WG311T is V5.0

Also, are you on vista?
