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. :)
