Sounds like APIPA ... You can google it, or 169.254 for more information. I found the following: http://www.winnetmag.com/Articles/Index.cfm?ArticleID=38840 "If you have an IP address in the range 169.254.xxx.xxx, APIPA is active. To disable APIPA for selected interfaces on your system without disabling DHCP, run regedit and modify or add the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\Adapters registry subkey. Set the IPAutoconfigurationEnabled REG_DWORD entry to a hexadecimal value of 0. If your system has more than one network interface, you can disable APIPA on the computer. To disable APIPA for all the NICs, run regedit and go to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces registry subkey. Modify or add a REG_DWORD value named IPAutoconfigurationEnabled, and set the value to a hex value of 0. After you modify one of these registry subkeys, you need to reboot your computer for the change to take effect."
