What do the "Lease Obtained" and "Lease Expires" entries in my Network
Connection Details mean? These always seem to be about an hour apart.
 
This refers to the amount of time the ip address is leased
for. You must be using dhcp to allocate ip addresses to
the workstations.
 
Yes...The router automatically assigns the IP addresses to the computers.
The difference between "obtained" and "leased" is always 1 hour. Does this
mean that after an hour the computer has to renew the IP address? Could
that be why the network freezes after a period of time on this machine?

Thanks.
