No need to apologise, at least we have a better idea of your issue.
169 means that for whatever reason, your PC is not getting an IP address.
Have you tried powering everything off, then powering it back on in the following order:
1) Modem-until lights lock on.
2) PC.
Alternatively, do you know anyone with a laptop that could pop round & plug in?
