Won't your ISP help? Have you contacted them? I have found that Virgin media have always been extremely helpful.

I'm sure you will forgive me for asking but, isn't Virus a bit of a funny name for a Host Name ?

It looks as though your subnet mask is incorrect along with the autoconfigured IPv4 address:

Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address. . : 169.254.245.253(Preferred)   Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.0.0

Typically, it's of the format "192.168.1.###" with the subnet mask being 255.255.255.0, and most home configurations do not have multiple subnets for obvious reasons. I would attempt to configure a static IP of perhaps something mid-range like "192.168.1.175" and set the subnet mask along with all other fields then try again to see if it's resolved.

That Autoconfiguration belongs to APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing)which used only if a DHCP server is not available, or if no static IP was configured. And 169.254.245.253 is a very strange private IP address.
