MiamiDX question
« on: January 04, 2004, 08:59:13 PM »
Recently I have been getting "The DHCP server refused to renew the lease on your IP address" about 3 or 4 min. after starting IBrowse.

MiamiDX is in WB-startup and is set to go online  at bootup, but doesn't give this requester until I actually start IBrowse and go to my homepage.

It only does this one time, and I don't have the problem until the next cold boot.

I remember this being discussed, but can't remember where.

Anybody remember the fix for this?

Uhm....can you give more info about your network setup? Or is this a known MiamiDX bug?

@ Oden
"is this a known MiamiDX bug?"
-------------

From what I remember; It is not a bug, just a setting in MiamiDX that needs to be set.

I just can't remember which setting.

It's a known bug of MiamiDX - it can't renew permanent leases. It happens to me if I set my router's lease to "Permanent" - setting it to two weeks fixes it.

I don't know why IBrowse seems to be triggering it, though...

Its a known bug, you need to set your router to never renew the lease or set it to renew at 999999999 mins/hours. If you dont have a router get one. Its saves a lot of grief.

Thanks KennyR & Acill
Setting my router properly seems to work.

Well. I thought that fixed it, but it didn't.

I have now set the Linksys router from two days to two weeks, but the problem still shows up.

Does anyone remember the MiamiDx setting thing?

I just had the same problem today, all I did was go round the DHCP range of my router...

My router uses the ip addresses of 192.168.1.100 through to 150 for DHCP, so all I did was set my IP to static and set it to 192.168.1.151, works a treat.

Setting to static does work for some too. Ever since I told my router to not renew the lease I havent had a problem though. I'll post the settins for DHCP I use in MiamiDX when I get home from work for you to take a look at.
