The DHCP server on your network has not been configured properly.  You or your 
helpful sysadmin (if you have one, your ISP if not) will need to fix that, 
before trying to obtain a DHCP lease on a client will work right.

Note that using ifconfig and "route add default" to set up your Internet 
connection manually will work if you know the network config information.
