I have a HP laptop that I use both at my home office and at college...
My home network (two desktops and the laptop) works fine with auto assigned

For the entire year my wi-fi laptop worked fine at college, now I get the
error message "Limited or no connectivity"... The signal received is strong,
but I can't connect online...I did a network system scan that came back with
this IP address (which is not familiar) 169.254.254.120...
I do have SP2 Windows "Home Edition"...
Any help would be appreciated!

The 169.254.254.120 is an APIPA address.

You're not getting service from a DHCP server. Open the WiFi client program -
does it show an Access Point that you are associating with? Do you know whose
AP it is, and do you have permission to use it?
