DHCP client going nuts, refreshing a lot
I have an Abit Airpace wifi (Atheros based AR5000X) and a Dlink
DGL-4300 gaming router. Recently I was getting a breif disconnect every hour, and every hour I would see "Your computer was successfully assigned an address from the network, and it can now connect to other computers." from DHCP-Client in the Windows Log Viewer. So I decided that I'd manually assign an IP, which seems to have solved the disconnect problem, but the DHCP-Client lists in my logs is going nuts. It is listing at an insane rate. Here is a picture. http://i14.tinypic.com/4bhpocn.png Anyone know why, or more importantly how to fix this? Thanks!

First thing to do might be to look at the router settings? Firstly, something there might be behind this, so it seems like a reasonable place to look, and secondly it strikes me that turning off DHCP server here might tidy up the messages you're seeing even if it isn't behind them to start with.

Thanks!- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I tried http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233 , and the logs still kinda go nuts. Maybe atheros doesn't know how to write drivers for Vista yet? The connection seems to work just fine now though, so maybe http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233 fixed it, and I won't get disconnects in hour intervals. As long as the logs don't actually take up insane ammounts of space, I guess I'm good.

The logs will automatically overwrite themselves so you should be ok there.
You might check with the driver manufacturer on an updated driver (though many don't have any just yet). J "Trix" wrote in message oups.com...
