Folks it happened again this morning. I kinda expect it to. Looks like it's a DHCP problem.
When I checked the machine this morning, no connection. Tried the 'unscrew cable' suggestion but that didn't make any difference.
Had wondered about the lease that I got yesterday and half expected to get a problem after 4am.

Modem rebooted and got IP address with a lease of 17th @ 09.20.07 until 18th @ 07.04.26

So I'm expecting this to happen tomorrow morning again.
Is the lease time normally 22hours?
