We are seeing a ton of machines with MACPort mini bridges installed that
are causing us havoc. Mostly new Dell laptops but we've seen a few
desktops. If you remove the mini bridge (from the network control panel)
it starts working fine.

The solutions we found were to manually assign a static IP, then switch back to DHCP, or to pull the wire from the NIC and wait till you get the "MS private address space" address (169.254), then plug back in.
