You have just received a new laptop at work that you will use on your company network and at home. The company network uses dynamic addressing, while your home network uses static addressing.
You connect the laptop to the company network and everything works fine . When you take your laptop home, you cannot connect to devices on your home network or the Internet.
You run ipconfig on the laptop and receive the following output:
Connection– specific DNS Suffix . . . . :
IP Address . . . . : 169 . 254 . 22 . 74
Subnet Mask . . . . : 255 . 255 . 0 . 0

You need to be able to connect to both the company network and your home network with the least amount of configuration and cost.
What should you do?
