If you enter IPconfig /all at the DOS Command and the IP returned is the 169 IP, The O/S timed out and assigned the IP. The 169 IP will allow resource sharing but it will not allow the machine to access the Internet, since the O/S never got an IP form a DHCP server on the network. This usually happens due to some mis-configuration of the wireless NIC or router if a router is in play.
