[QUOTE="EvenStranger, post: 1262133, member: 181804"] 169.254.x.x is a self-assigned IP address, and means the Touch is not getting a valid IP address from the router's DHCP server. The first think I do in situations like this is disable encryption on the router temporarily and see if the iPod will connect successfully. If it does, then you know the wireless on the iPod is working properly, it can get a valid IP address and can connect to the internet. Then add encryption and test again. Ensure you're entering the password correctly. Passwords are case sensitive, so make sure you've got your proper capital and lowercase letters. [/QUOTE]
