IP 169.254 DHCP server unavailable Windows XP

First off, excuse my ignorance of computer technology. The limited amount of things that I do know about this current situation is from what I've heard from my ISP and from reading a bunch of forums. Currently I live in an apartment complex that offers wireless internet for the whole complex. I was receiving high latency issues because of interferance from other 64 Ghz bandwith things like cordless phones. As a fix for the high latency my ISP has provided me with a TUT modem and ethernet connection for my computer. Right now I'm connected to the wireless signal still, because when I set everything up I was receiving "Limited to No Connectivity" messages. From reading forums etc. I have found several "fixes" none of which has worked- Including power cycling my modem. Currently my IP is a windows generated 169.254.x.x because it is saying my DHCP server is unavailable (whatever that is lol) I've tried opening the command dialog box and using the commands ipconfig /reset and /renew to no avail. There was also some kind of nepsh command that I had used to try and uninstall and reinstall TCP/IP something or other...anyone know of any other possible fixes for this situation?
