The thing is that I'm living in hostel and they use cisco router with web authentication. Normally after successfully connected to the network, I've got to enter name & password at the browser (1.1.1.1/login.html) to get redirected. However, the problem is now is that when connecting to the router, I always get the IP like 169.254.x.x which is not correct, no DNS server and no DHCP server as well. Normally DHCP would be 1.1.1.1 . Can help ?

Jump to Post169.254... is an ip that is assigned to your card when it is set to DHCP, but no DHCP server answers the request.
Are you using wired or wireless? Try connecting, then use "IPCONFIG /RENEW" to force a new DHCP address. Make certain you are on the correct Wifi …
Jump to PostIf you currently have no IP address, yet you can surf, then there's some fantastic magic happening there. Do you have a 3G card in the unit (or other type of carrier) that gets you online?
