blueyonder IP Change

<meiNNiT>

Guest
I have noticed that over the last couple of days, my blueyonder broadband connection doesn't get assigned a lease automatically. The NIC goes into 'offline' mode and I cannot use the net. Even after an ipconfig /release and /renew still nothing. Only after I reboot I can use the net again but my IP seems to change after the reboot. My IP was the same since I got BY installed until now! Anyone else having similar problems?
 
prolly they r having trouble wit BB in ur area <a href="http://status.blueyonder.co.uk:888/" target="_blank">http://status.blueyonder.co.uk:888/</a> chk it if not give them a call.
 
this has been an issue for ages they claim there still working on it, wether they are or not is a different matter, just remember after 24hours you need a reboot (thats how long an IP lasts for on BY).

Ive had Blueyonder for over a year now, I had the same ip address for about 8 months (62.**.**.***), I then got into a little trouble with my FTP site and since that my ip address has changed every time I reboot. Figure that one out!

i'm new to broadband and have signed up telewest because of the package they offered.
two questions: does the ip address changing affect the service?
and how do i find out i'm getting the speed i'm paying for?

changing IPs is normally only cause you dont want to be known as the person on 63.***.***.*** or youve been banned from a site and want to get access :)
