[QUOTE="growlgrowl, post: 1059248, member: 58154"] I am staying with a friend for a month in the UK and cannot connect to his BTHomeHub router. I am getting an error from my on the wireless strength indicator that I've NEVER had before: the normal symbol is lightened and it has an exclamation mark in the middle, then in the drop down, Alert: No internet connection. The password I use is correct and has been accepted. My iPod touch won't connect either. My friend has had the hub for ages and uses it with his MacBook Pro. In Network this message is shown, AirPort has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.104.24 and will not be able to connect to the Internet." Isn't it an unusual IP address. In the TCP/IP settings it shows 'Using DHCP' with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 and nothing under router. In DNS there is nothing. Is there anything known about BT hubs that I should be doing (I have switched it off and on) Gggrrrr [/QUOTE]
