Brian,
I am not disconnecting at the adsl level, merely closing iPlayer.
however it is the case that this is part of a wireless network.
however why would that have an effect?
cheers

Another option is if you are using wireless it is that address that
is being reallocated if you disconnect.
BT's boxes do not usually change IP unless you disconnect and
reconnect at the ADSL level. If this is happening a lot and
turning the box off for a few minutes doesn't resolve the problem,
get BT to swap your ADSL box.

Could others on BTbroadband, or other isps confirm this?
BTbroadband is pretty stable in Central London,
there is no doubt that the ip address is being changed on stopping
iPlayer
it's happened so regularly that frankly we don't use iPlayer at the
moment.
what I don't know is why, and whether others have this issue...
cheers

iplayer: ip change on disconnect
the last two times I've used iplayer
I close opera, and then find that my ip has changed.
this seems most odd, but is it feasible?
it's more than a little annoying as I host various test and
develop websites.
opera on os x using bt broadband
cheers
