Touch not using DHCP

[Cams]

My Touch was working fine over my wi-fi connection and then it stopped. It's now getting a 169. IP address, which is a signal that it's not getting an IP address from the router's DHCP server (which would be 192.) The Macbook from which I am writing this message is getting a 192. address from the router and shows up in the router's settings as a DHCP client, as indeed it should, but the Touch is not showing up at all.

I've tried renewing the lease on the Touch and have also tried using a static IP (but to be fair I may be getting the DNS wrong is it's timing out when I do that rather than telling me instantly that I don't have an Internet connection.) It is connecting to the router, as I've got the wi-fi icon. I've tried forgetting the network and re-entering the WPA password, thus connecting to the router, but I'm still not getting a local IP address in the 192 range.

Any ideas?

not being an expert on all this my first instinct would be to get you to try rebooting your router, if that doesn't work try deleting the routers profile, I'm out of ideas upto that point if they do not work

Well hell, rebooting the router did the trick! Thanks man.
