I keep getting this message that says:

"Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address. Try again later or enter an IP address in Network settings"

Does anyone know how to fix this????

Thanks and happy holidays. Manda

Welcome to Aximsite!

I was having this problem, my only solution was to hard reset and start from scratch.

I get that message from time to time. It is harmless and doesn't really cause any real issues other than as an annoyance. I've searched for a solution, tried out many things, but have never been able to stop it, so I just live with it.

Some users have found the following to work (as Julie says, it doesn't work for all devices):

HERE IS THE SOLUTION - VERY SIMPLE!!!!! 1. Remove the Axim X51V from the cradle. 2. Edit the X51V registry (Resco or PHM will work fine, as will others). 3. Look for the registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\RNDISFN1\Parms\TcpIp Modify "EnableDHCP" from 1 to 0. 4. Quit the registry editor and soft reset the X51V. THAT'S IT. IT'S THAT SIMPLE!!!!

You should do a backup of your PPC before making registry changes and be careful to follow the directions. You can mess up the device by messing around in the registry.
