Description
#281 #263
Same symptom as the referenced issue.
I'm using UDP2RAW-MP with NPCAP. Everything goes well until the computer wakes up from sleep, then the network adapter will be assigned an address as 169.254.xx which will not be able to access the internet. Closing UDP2RAW-MP and then resetting the adapter will fix the issue. WinPCAP doesn't have this issue.

Research direction
Start by reading the referenced issues #281 and #263, then reproduce the sleep/wake scenario with UDP2RAW-MP and NPCAP. Compare the adapter behavior with WinPCAP and verify that waking restores a usable DHCP-assigned address without closing UDP2RAW-MP or manually resetting the adapter.
