[SOLVED] Wi-Fi works but LAN doesn't; No Default Gateway

Hey guys, having some interesting internet problems. My Windows 7 PC connected to our router by Ethernet cable was working fine earlier today, but the internet cut out for some unknown reason. My laptop, phone, Xbox, etc. can still access Wi-Fi with no issues. Here's my ipconfig:
C:\Users\Max>ipconfig /all

Windows IP Configuration

I immediately noticed that Default Gateway was empty. I tried a few of those netsh reset commands to no avail; either way this is a little over my head.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated, and let me know if you need any more information from me. Thanks!

EDIT: Also I'm using a Actiontec V1000H Modem/Router provided by my ISP.

    Looks like your IP is an APIPA IP address which is what a computer assigns itself when there is no DHCP server. An example would be if you plugged two computers together, they would self assign an IP to themselves a 169.254.0.0 IP so they could talk. Your computer is talking to the router but the router isnt giving it an IP. Have you tried powering off the router and computer, then starting the router up and letting it load. Once it is good to go then start up the computer.

    EDIT: Restarting the computer will clear the IP address so it will pull another once it gets turned back on. Another way is to try and do a "ipconfig /release" then "ipconfig /renew" from command line (Start>Run> "cmd")

    Hey Warabit, looks like that did the trick. Thanks for your help!

    For some reason I didn't think it could be something so easy; I may have overlooked it because my roommate had reset the router just a week or two ago.
