The error I get when I try to connect my Directv HR 22 to the internet is the follow:

A problem was detected. Press SELECT to find out more.

IP Address 169.254.7.220 OK
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0 OK
Default Gateway: -
DNS: -
Network: Connected
Internet: Not Connected (13)

I've connected the receiver just fine to the internet before and I'm just puzzled to why my Linksys Wireless Bridge won't connect and Directv won't help because it's not their "wireless kit." Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!!
 
I'd recommend using your laptop or PC connected to it and see if you can get it working that way first and then move it to the HR22 and see if it's still failing. From what you've said you're not getting an IP address from your DHCP server (probably your router) so could be that your bridge lost its connection.
