Try the following: reboot everything and connect the NIC then check the ip again. If it is 169, remove the coaxial cable from the modem. Then type ipconfig /release and then ipconfig /renew and see if it picks up an ip. It should get 192.168.100.3 or 192.168.100.10. If it does, reconnect the coax, reboot the modem and try releasing and renewing the ip again.
