Based on the auto IP assigned, 169.254.243.24, that would indicate that your computer was unable to negotiate a DHCP lease or no DHCP server was avaiable to provide an IP lease. Visit: anITKB.com, an IT Knowledge Base.

right, i know that the srever works as i can connect to it via laptop with xp. do you know how to fix the problemon my pc to restor dhcp?

hmmm... so obvisouly you have verified that the DHCP server is working. This may require other measures for troubleshooting as your Win 7 client is already set as "DHCP enabled : Yes". There is no other configuration required on the client. I would say that you may want to visit the vendor's website for the NIC that you have installed on the system to ensure its running on the lastest drivers. Have you verified/dupicated this issue on any other network? Or is it only this network? If you have some technical know how, you may also consider installing a packet capture app (such as Wireshark) to inspect the DHCP packets. You should see 4 to complete the process successfully (DHCPDISCOVER, DHCPOFFER, DHCPREQUEST, DHCPACK).

Hi Try to provide the IP address manualy and see if it's connetcting or not and give it a try to use google DNS (8.8.8.8 - 8.8.4.4) try also use windows troubleshooting go to network and sharing center and then click the red cross mark.Mohamed Mostafa
