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?
