My XP keeps renewing my IP every 7 days and when it does
that it messes up my connection and makes it hard for me
to grap an IP from my provider. I was wondering if anyone
knew how to expand my IP leasing time on XP. This is
really getting annoying and I want to figure out how to
make it stop. If anyone knows please email me at my
address. Thanks
 
Your ISP determines how long your lease runs - not Windows. When your lease
expires, Windows (if it's set up correctly) automatically tries to renew the
lease. Contact your ISP to be sure that your networking configuration is set
up exactly as the ISP requires - this may be different from the default
configuration that Windows offers.

The custom in newsgroups is to reply to the group so that all may benefit.
In any case, you don't want to expose your real email address to a public
newsgroup. It's an invitation for spam.
