    Invalid IP address starting with 169


    Hi,
    I am not getting internet access on my pc through ethernet but i can get it through wifi. On running the windows troubleshooter, it says that the IP address is invalid. So i tried following some youtube videos but it didnt help. The IP address star with 169. I have to face a lot of problems because my wifi connection doesnt reach till my room so i am dependent on my ethernet. I would be really thankful to you if you help me solve my problem.

    Thank You.

    :)

    169 ip Address, media disconnected, invalid ethernet ip


    Right.

    Note to self. Ask for help. Get partial help fm LogicEarth (thank you - only after suggesting I was quite going slightly mad - smile). Irrespective of self-hosting website non-public - I still didnt get an answer or quick fix for 169 ip address and so forth.

    See? Nobody actually addressed my issue besides the fact that im partially crazy for hosting my own website. Nobody ('cept for Alure thingy), has given an alternative.

    ABSOLUTELY NOBODY addressed the issue of 169 ip and so forth.

    No router, No DCHP and a 169 address does not stop one from accessing the site. What people will use is the public IP provided to you by your ISP. Your internal private IPs are irrelevant.

    Your stuck , 169 addresses are because there is no DHCP server involved , without DHCP , there's no way for people to look up your IP address to connect to your web page..

    Host your site elsewhere.
