Are you suggesting I should've done a /renew or /release? Are you saying after the machine had been switched off and back on it was retaining IP information that it was previously automatically assigned?

// When using my router, there's an option to renew or release the DHCP lease within the DD-WRT control panel, which I was using frequently, if that means anything to you. I'm familiar with ipconfig, however I rarely if ever use those parameters.

// When using my router I use a static IP of 192.168.1.100, when I plugged in the modem directly I set Windows to use auto configuration, which I may've been incorrectly referring to as DHCP in the Windows sense.
