As you might know, I've been having an aggravating DHCP problem. I use DCHPCD, which claims to retrieve the lease renew time from the router. But, once a day, I have to go and unplug the router, and plug it back in, for it to reset. A sudden idea came to me today. My renew time is set to 0 on my router, which is equal to one day. I thought that perhaps DHCPCD recognized 0 as some other time, or no time at all. I therefore set it to 720 minutes. I reset the router, went to my laptop, and did an ifup wlan0. I then checked /etc/dhcpc/ folder, and looked at the info file. The times were still not correct. I then realized that I maybe should send the info file to this list. So, here it is: IPADDR=192.168.1.101 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.1.0 BROADCAST=192.168.1.255 GATEWAY=192.168.1.1 DNS=167.206.3.205,167.206.3.139,167.206.3.206 DHCPSID=192.168.1.1 DHCPGIADDR=0.0.0.0 DHCPSIADDR=0.0.0.0 DHCPCHADDR=00:00:D1:21:C7:B0 DHCPSHADDR=00:06:25:E7:C1:C1 DHCPSNAME='' LEASETIME=43200 RENEWALTIME=21600 REBINDTIME=37800 INTERFACE='wlan0' CLASSID='Linux 2.6.3-4mdk i686' CLIENTID=00:00:D1:21:C7:B0
This ring anyones bell? Shouldn't all those times be the same?
TIA
