Hello I was just looking in my eventlog and I noticed that each 15th second I
am sucessfully assigned a new IP address which I have no clue on why?

This is the message I get:
[General]
Your computer was successfully assigned an address from the network, and it
can now connect to other computers.

What is the lease time of the IPaddress you are getting or Do you have
DHCP-NAP enabled network ?
If the lease time is very shorter , then you will see this getting logged in
the eventviewer quite often.
If DHCP-NAP is enabled and any health state change is happening on the
Client machine also you will see this happening.

Thanks

Thank you for your reply!

The thing is the router me and my girlfriend are connected to have DHCP
enabled. But I want to make sure I always get the IP 192.168.0.3 (it has
happened that it has switched IP's before even if MAC address hasn't
changed), so I'm using a static IP (192.168.0.3) to make sure I always get (I
know I know, pretty stupid but the port forwarding doesn't work on MAC or
Computername, just IP so when it mixed up a long time ago my girlfriend got
my ports open and vice versa.).

So there is no lease time ;).
However, I have hamahaci installed and that has a lease time of 3 minutes
and 48 seconds.

I just wish the eventlog could be more specific on what IP address I was
assigned with etc.

I've also disabled IPv6 etc. to make sure it doesn't have anything to do
with that :P.

Thanks!

I guess my question is, why do my eventlog get spammed with this when all
my
NICs already have an IP assigned?
