When I ping another system by host name on my network, I no longer get a 192.168.x.x response, but rather an IP like 69.16.x.x.
As a result, i get "Request timed out". This is when I try to ping by hostname from one computer to another. They are both joined to the domain. I even tried taking both off the domain, and just adding them to same workgroup, but to no avail. I can ping by IP, but why when I ping by hostname, I get the weird 69.16.x.x address. I want to be able to resolve by hostname.
1) disable firewall on both PC's windows firewall as well as Antivirus Firewall if any...
2) Lan properties disable(uncheck) ipv6 or use following fix

3) Check IP address gateway or subnet mask
4) this could be DNS service issue... start-Run- services.msc and stratr DNS client service.
5) log on to c:\windows\System32\Driver
at last check event log.

Are you at the University of Massachusetts? IP addresses 69.16.0.0 - 69.16.127.255 belong to them.
Or do you mean 169.254.xxx.xxx, which is the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) range?
