My iBook seems to be having a problem obtaining an IP address (configured using DHCP), telling me that the IP address is in use by another MAC address when I try to connect to my AirPort Express network. Now, I tried resetting the cable modem and doing a hard reset on the Express, but nothing seems to work.
The interesting and annoying part is that I have another machine on the network (a Windows machine) that has no problems connecting, and if I "borrow" another wireless connection with my iBook, I can connect to another wireless network with no problem (I live in an apartment complex that provides internet).
Is there a way to force the iBook to look for a new IP address when it's on my network. Note: Connecting to the other network gives me an IP of 192.168..., my network gives me an IP of 10.0.1... Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, as I can't really use the internet on my laptop.

Update: Checking "Distribute IP addresses" -> AirPort client computers share a single IP address (192.168.1.1 addressing) gives me internet access, but messes up my network (I can't share iTunes between computers or connect between computers. Note that everything was working fine in the past.)
