Problem using a DI-514 as WAP

I have a small wired network with a router that acts as a DHCP server. I am
trying to use a D-Link DI-514, which I got free, as a wireless access point.
I first connected the DI-514 directly to a PC over a wired connection to
turn off DHCP and to manually assign a LAN address in the same subnet as my
wired LAN. I disconnected that cable. I then connected the wired router to
a LAN port on the DI-514. At that time, I could access the DI-514 from a
browser on my LAN using the IP address I assigned. (I could ping and I
could access the configuration screens) When I try to make a wireless
connection to the LAN, however, I can see the DI-514, but when I try to
connect, no IP is assigned. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

never mind. I fixed it

I wish you'd tell us what you did to fix it.

My adapter was set for peer-to-peer, rather than access point.
