you have to enable DHCP in modem itself.after enabling DHCP in modem also set "obtain IP address automatically" in LAN TCP/IP properties in computer.

You may not have configured the wireless part of your modem properly. 1394 (aka Firewire) has nothing to do with this.

You must enable and configure wireless networking in SL2 141.

to configure the wireless part..login to the modem's configuration page(default is 192.168.1.1 username and password is admin)... look for an option called wireless or wifi settings... you normally would find 2 fields..one is the SSID field.. this is the network name.. you can name it anything.. then is the WEP field.. this is like a password.. enter a strong password for security.. you will need ot enter this password whenever you want to connect to your wifi network from your laptop...another options are the choice of CHANNELS... Channel 6 or 11 is recommended!!
