Is this still the fallout from SpiritOne dropping support for fixed IP addresses? If so, I would expect this is an issue with SpiritOne, not Frontier. I don't think Frontier necessarily needs to be blamed for what's probably a configuration issue at SpiritOne. It's possible that they configured the DHCP server with unrealistic lease times. It's also possible that your router isn't requesting the same IP address when it tries to renew the lease. If it's SpiritOne you should call them and see if they can help. While I'm disappointed by their change in policy they've always been proactive in helping with issues like this - that's one of the reasons I stayed with DSL/SpiritOne long after Fios became available in my neighborhood. john- _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
