Can't connect to wireless internet

Text:

Bought used I Book, trying to connect to a secure verizon network. It says " Airport is connected to the network Verizon -----Secure. Airport has a self assigned IP address & may not be able to connect to the internet.

Went to network and tried changing IP address off my desktop got IP address and tried typing in. when went to apply it says that the IP addy is only 4 numbers w/ periods. My IP consist of 8 letters and 4 periods. When I went to change DHCP manually it would not accept periods and said invalid. Any suggestions. Thanks much Rick
