We moved into our apartment and it has a free unsecured network. This is seen in wifi connection as belkin 54g
There is also an ethernet point in the front room
The connection did work briefly a few days ago but now just shows as an unidentified network with no internet access.
Ipconfig shows a 169.254 address with a subnet of 255.255.0.0.
I also tried an ipconfig /release and /renew which says 'Unable to contact DHCP server'
Is there anything i can do to get internet access such as setting a static ip? The landlany doesnt know anything about the net connections really - i guess the comms room downstairs is managed by another company
(using 3g on our phones for the time being)
