Trying to install wireless print server and it ain't working. Very possible there is an IP address conflict. Now I know just enough about networking and IP addresses to get myself in serious trouble, so what are the possible remedies for the conflict. I think I might have given myself the same IP address for two devices.
How do I rectify this?

Try ipconfig from the CMD prompt and see what IP addresses the two
devices have.

Are both the PC and wireless router DHCP allocated addresses? If they are
have a look at your router (or whatever's handling DHCP) and see what
entries it has for the MAC addresses of the two adapters.

If they're DHCP try doing an ipconfig /release_all and an ipconfig
/renew_all

If the addresses are static change them in Network options.

curious why you think it is an ip conflict.

nj is right. ip config will tell you if you do.
