I am running Windows 8 and it says the connection is "Limited". This problem usually resolves itself within a few minutes.
The problem really came to a head this morning when I could not get online for around 45 mins
Is there any fixes for this?
I wish I could offer more technical information, but I am a bit of newbie to this.

Perhaps try a different (newer) microwave and see if it makes any difference?

In windows 8, the limited wireless icon means you are connected to the router, but there is no internet connectivity, i.e. like OldJim suggested, the connection dropped. I see this when I disconnect the PPP session manually or when wireless goes up after rebooting it and before it reconnects to +net.
The only way he'd see a 169. IP address, is if he had a NIC wired to something, assuming there is one on his windows 8 PC, as it would take over from the un-associated Wifi interface.
A look at his connection graph would probably end the speculation
