Title: Help Please with "Lost lease on IP Address"
Post by: wmh on February 03, 2010, 09:53:22 AM: Every day at the same time I suffer a wireless disconnect from the router. The log indicates the following:

[INFO] Wed Feb 03 11:59:50 2010 Lost lease on IP Address

Does anyone know how to fix this so I do not get a wireless disconnect each day?

Check to make sure your modem, router and wireless devices are not trying to use the same IP.

DHCP IP address lease ended
You can reserve IP address
LAN Settings
don't worry

What IP is it losing?

Check to make sure your modem, router and wireless devices are not trying to use the same IP.

I have the ip addresses of the network computers on the DHCP Reservations List set for the ip addresses never to expire. I assume the ip address in question could be the modem. It's a D-Link DCM-202 cable modem. The router ip address is 192.168.0.1. The ip addresses of my machines are as below:

   Assigned IP     Hostname     Expires
   192.168.0.192   Lexmark X4550     Never
   192.168.0.194   Familyroom     Never
   192.168.0.195   Wii     Never
   192.168.0.196   JDH     Never
   192.168.0.197   OFFICE     Never
   192.168.0.198   Netbook     Never

How do I check the modem's ip address?

Post by: wmh on February 03, 2010, 11:12:24 AM: I was able to find the modem's ip address by connecting to it through the web browser. But its ip address is totally different from any of the above.

Post by: wmh on February 03, 2010, 11:17:36 AM: The Cable Modem IP Information I found showed also:

DHCP Lease Time: D: -- H: -- M: -- S: --

But there is no way to change this setting.

If the modem is configured that way you need to contact your ISP

Post by: wmh on February 04, 2010, 12:15:33 PM: I contacted my ISP (Comcast) and they say the modem is working fine. The ip address is not the modem's, neither is it the ip address of any of the network computers or the router. But what else would be causing this disconnect at the same time each day?

Post by: wmh on February 04, 2010, 01:42:05 PM: Under Device Information I have found the offending IP address as the IP address of the WAN. Does this help any toward a fix of this problem?

Post by: user1234 on February 04, 2010, 01:47:17 PM: I was having issues with DHCP too with some devices. I reserved IPs for each of them like WMH did, and it seems to have gone away. Defeats the purpose a bit, though.
