Several list members have remarked that it is necessary to release the
lease with AT&T.  You may have to hook your windows box up directly
w/o the router and use winipcfg to release all on your lease.  Then
shut everything down and plug the LEAF box in.  Maybe then AT&T will
give you a lease.

PS - html on this list makes your mail very difficult to read.  Please
set your email software to send in text mode to the list.
