So I just got my MBP yesterday (15" 2.53) at the Apple store and love it the only problem is it wont connect to my home wireless network. I own a Linksys WRT54G router that I've had for about two years and has worked fine with windows machines in the past. My airport is saying that there's "No IP Address". Any advice? Thanks.
Got a tip for us?

I was having the same problem with wireless connectivity after OSX update 10.5.6. Initially I thought my airport card was messed up because my iphone could still connect. So I went to a buddies house and I was able to connect to his router asked him what security he was running and he said WPA2.
Come to find out my Verizon fios router comes default with WEP 128 or something so I went to the routers ip and changed it to WPA2 and that was it. I don't know if anyone else has had this problem but for some reason I can't sign on to a WEP network airport just times out or says invalid password. So if I were you I would check to see what security your running on your router like JGruber said that did it for me.
