That's a relief. I was just going by what their web site said: "Note: It is essential to maintain a DHCP configuration as IP leases are set to expire every four hours." I guess we should believe what they do, and not what they say. I only reboot my firewall when APS dictates it by sending an Unintended Power Interruption my way, so hopefully my IP address will hardly ever change.... On a side note, I noticed when I got up this morning that my Internet connection had gone south. I wonder if all those pleas to get me to switch to DHCP have finally resulted in them pulling the plug. Oh well, this is just what I need to get me to pick up the pace on my conversion. :) ~Jeff On Monday, January 21, 2002, David A.
