I also use Comcast and my IP rarely changes. I think I may be on the same IP now for maybe a year and a half to two years. The trick is... keep your equipment running. Generally I've found that the Comcast DHCP server pretty much respects the lease renewals as long as you're there. Throw your router and cable modem on a UPS and just leave it be. A cheap UPS will keep those two devices running for a long time. -Kenta _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
