Correlation does not imply causation. Logic, and knowledge of how the cable system works however, does. Your CPE knows nothing of any IP address, and cannot even ask for one until after it has ranged and locked its channels, connected to a specific port, and negotiated it's configuration file.
So quite politely, you are clueless.

You seem to be missing my point, I'm not saying I think its possible I'm saying I ACTUALLY DO IT lol.
When I was on VM if I changemy routers MAC address to a certain 1 it would get CPC-11 if I changed the last digits ofthat MAC address to 35 its would get CPC-16. So I'm not saying I'm a network guru, Infact I suspect I probably only know as little as you. But facts are facts lol.
I understand disconnecting and reconnecting would also cause a switch but certain MAC/IP combinations got the same CPC EVERY time. Must of just been a fluke.
. Also changing the MAC back to its original would get the same IP back. This is simply due to the way VM's IP "stick" to MACs. Incase you haven't noticed it is possible to have a static IP or a sticky IP. You're saying every reconnection is random ITS NOT.

If ignition wants to tell me I'm wrong fair enough as I'm like you and know very little about networks other than what I have read.
