AP without DHCP

So what would be the easiest way to find the IP subnet the AP is on?
I assume it's necessary to have/set an IP address to be able to get the
network info. Is this correct?

You can try pings to broadcast networks rather than scanning the
entire network. You can also try setting you MAC address to that of
the AP to try and bypass MAC filtering. Maybe RARP will work? There's
a lot of different things you can try.

    Hi guys,

    I was wondering what methods or commands can be used to get past the
    following situation:
    You access a WiFi AP with WEP encryption, you get the key and can
    connect but do not get an IP address. I assume this is due to the
    use of
    fixed IPs only (no dhcp). How do you get past this? How do you get
    info
    in the IP range? Do I need to nMap scan every possible internal IP
    range???
    What if no clients are connected and Mac address filtering is switched
    on on top of the lack of dhcp? I luckily do have a client Mac address,
    but if I didn't have this it would be an extra hurdle.
    My knowledge and experience have encountered a concrete wall. How do I
    climb it?

    Thanks for any help.

    Bert
