I noticed I was using quite some meme references in my Facebook comments such as :sweet jesus: or :mother of god:. So, yesterday evening, I put together an Chrome extension for this. Very simple.

Windows routing problem: Network is unreachable

0

I don’t know what got broken, or how did it get broken but IP connections on my interface which is using AUTO IP (169.254.0.0/16) stopped working all of a sudden.

When I explicitly bind to the correct interface it worked.

The fact that the error is returned immediately and the content of the error points out that it is a routing problem. So I checked my routing table.

Looks like the problem is

Netmask should have been 255.255.0.0, so that any 169.254.C.D would be carried on with this routing record. So I deleted the faulty line

then issued

10 being my Ethernet adapter as can be seen on the top “route -4 print”. Tricky part for me was to get the gateway was “On-link” in the routing table, after a couple of tries I figured using “0.0.0.0″ as the gateway just makes it “On-link”. After all, whole point of AUTO IP networks is that there’s no router present :)

Now, it works, but after reboots these could be screwed up all over again (despite the fact that route has -p parameter). We’ll see.
