That's the same block of IPs used by Windows for DHCP link-local addresses ( 169.254.0.0/16). Windows 7 refuses to route traffic out through a link-local address. Solution: change your Canopy's internal IP from the default 169.254.1.1 to something like 10.0.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 (basically, one of the proper RFC1918 blocks). David Smith MVN.net
