Note: I already know the solution, however, this problem is recurring randomly and I don't know why.

My DNS has messed up before, and I found a solution to this, but later my wireless connection stopped working with the error, "limited or no connectivity" and assigned the IP 169.254.x.x, which is not within my router's range. I tried many things and eventually found a fix, but this problem still comes back every now and then.

The fix I am using is this:
Code:
netsh winsock reset catalog
netsh int ip reset reset.log
And for DNS:
Code:
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /release
followed by restarting my computer. The connection works for everyone else on the network, and my connection is just fine when on Linux, so it is not a problem with the router or hardware.

After doing that, my connection works just fine, but I'm confused as to why it keeps happening.

hmm my hp laptop does this, also are you on wireless.

try removing your self from the network and rejoining completly also i remember you compactwater

PS: this happens when the computers DHCP requests an ip that may have allready been on the network before and is sitting in the cache.

try setting a static ip that has not been used before
