Folks,

I have a very strange wireless problem. I have wireless capability on my laptop and regularly access wireless networks at work and in my own home. However when I try to connect to wireless in my parents house I recieve a 169.254 address. If I plug in directly to his router instead of using wireless, it works fine. And his own laptop recieves a kosher IP address and he can browse without any issues, it just seems that my particular laptop has a particular problem with his wireless network and no other one. Any ideas anyone?

Jody
