Last week, I encountered some problems when I was helping my friend setting up the wireless access on the broadband router.
The Windows XP PC can access the Aztech router DSL305EW via wireless but Windows Vista failed. On the Windows Vista notebook, it showed that it was connected but the IP address assigned to it was 169.X.X.X.
I confirmed it with another Windows Vista notebook and it gave the same behavior. However, both Windows Vista notebooks can access the wireless from another's router without any problem.
After searching from the internet, I tried the solution below by changing some registry entries but still can't get it work.

At last, I managed to resolve the problem by upgrading the version of router’s firmware.
