[SOLVED] Can't connect with DHCP to my router anymore only with ethern

Today I've rebooted my computer at home and I saw I wasn't connected properly to my router with DHCP, other hosts on the network are not affected.

I use connman as my network manager and from some reason my ipv4 address is always `169.254.XXX.XXX`. I've read that this prefix is used when no DHCP server is found. This issue affects only this specific host's ethernet connection. I've tried to disable ipv6 for all connections and for only some of them but no avail. I can still connect using WiFi and get a DHCP address which starts normally at `192.168.14.XXX` but not with ethernet.

I've even tried installing connman from source but the problem persists.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

EDIT:

Never mind, It was a bad cable, problem solved.
