Default Unidentifed Network - Limited Connectivity


Well basically last night my internet was running fine and when i woke
up to turn it on i got Unidentifed Network - Limited Connectivity, I'm
using my laptop's connection which is the same connection way as the

Jordeo - Your problem is the following "...Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address. .
: 169.254.128.229..." - the address "169...." is assigned by Windows when
DHCP (Usually a router) has not assigned an IP address (Usually "192....").

check if there is a new firmware for the router or driver for the NIC. Or
this search result may help.

You aint getting DHCP by the looks of it.

I'll make a guess your router distributes DHCP.

In the first instance I would recommend you check the cable between
your desktop and the router and also maybe worth power cycling the
router.

Nope, this didn't work and plus when i have the ethernet cable plugged
into my router it automatically switches it's self back on :S

Also i had a look at hidden Network adapters and found all these hiding
there. Is this needed?
