Hi, I have a weird problem; at my office every time I try to connect to my wall outlet, my laptop gets assigned an internal IP (192.168.0.114) and I cannot access the internet. However everything works as expected when I use any other wall outlets. To add to this, when other laptops connect to my wall outlet, they work properly. This is a dump of my network connection (with DHCP enabled): <http://pastebin.com/7bsXDMBP>. And the relevant bits from /var/log/messages (when I get assigned the wrong IP): <http://pastebin.com/9eZTprqk>
What is the IP subnet that DHCP hands out? Is it on a different subnet from 192.168.0.x?
Sounds almost like the MAC address of your laptop has been assigned an IP from the DHCP server. Why that keeps from getting internet access depends on the subnet question above, methinks.
