Been having some odd problems tonight, hopefully someone here can shed some light on them.
At around 20:32 (TY Trillian :P) I lost the internet. Logged into the router, as that's usually the first problem. Tried DHCP Release/Renew but with no luck. Power cycled the router, no luck either. Then I went & power cycled the Modem & Router. This time the router had an IP, but unfortunatley it was 10.41.*.* (Almost identical to the modems IP).
I thought I'd give a static IP setting in the router a try, and being as sad as I am, I've got the IP, Gateway, Subnet Mask, DNS1&2 memorised. Whacked that in, and the internet came back to life.
Then, at 22:18 I lost the internet again. Tried DHCP, but was back to 10.41.*.* ¬_Ãà †â€™ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¬ Back onto static again, but I'm not sure how long it'll hold out.
Anyone know why I can't get a real IP from the DHCP? Also, is it alright for me to be using a static IP?
Random possibly useful info:

Also, this can't be good can it? O.o
