On Friday I saw the most thing, a laptop wireless setup to see the router, the Router was set up with the 10.11.0.1 as its lan number. At first all was well but because the laptop had hot been updated I had to load the security etc updates.

As soon as the updates were completed and the machine was rebooted the wireless device changed to 169.254.107.86 with mask as 255.255.0.0 and I could not change it!

Both ipconfig /release or ipconfig /renew will not work!

There are three machines that used the same router a desktop with IP 10.11.0.2 (255.255.2550) and a laptop 10.11.0.5 (255.255.255.0) there work correctly (Desktop OS is Windows 7 and the Laptop XP Pro)

Any ideas?
