O.P. Laptop wireless help
Just bought a laptop but having trouble with my wireless connection. I try to connect to my router, but it takes a long time to connect and when it does it gives me a 169.x.x.x address (an automatic private address). If I try and type an IP manually, it will connect but I won't be able to use the internet.
My PC is connected to my router wirelessly ( ? ) and its working 100%.

I'm thinking it's something to do with the DHCP on my laptop but I don't know how to fix it.
