Re: ip changes

What SHOULD happen is that your PC should send a request to renew the lease on the IP address half-way through the lease period (i.e. sometime tomorrow) or next time you connect, if later. At that time you should get a further two day lease on the same address. Not sure why that isn't happening, though. Any firewall?

One test might be to open a command window and type

ipconfig /renew

this should manually renew the lease, which should be shown if you then do another

ipconfig /all
