Subject: COX IP Renew
Time for me once again to expose my considerable ignorance;

I thought dhcpcd was supposed to accomodate dynamic hosting. Why is it a
problem for the IP address to change (assuming dhcpcd is set up correctly?)

FWIW, I have Cox cable, and the only time I run into a problem is when
Cox has a problem.
