Odd Internal address issue, linked to DHCP?

[nickpinn]

I already have a bug listed in the bug tracker in that DHCP leases arent visible in the dashboard.

If I turn the server off, then my network connection goes down, so it is dishing out the leases.

Under normal circumstances, Server is always on, and I'll turn my PC on.

If i type 'hda' into search bar I get connected to the dashboard.

However, if I download using sabnzbd for a while, If I try to connect to dhasboard using HDA, it doesnt find anything. hda.home.com brings up a random webpage. I can connect using the IP address. But the server is still dishing out my DHCP lease. Odd right.

Ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew doesnt fix. A reboot of the PC does. What do you think?

Sounds like it could be a client issue. Recommend next time this occurs, run the network troubleshooter and see if it provides any clues.

Thanks (again!) Bigfoot.

These were my thoughts too. I think it was definitely the Windows machine that was playing up.

I've wiped windows now in favour of Ubuntu anyway so we will see if these play nice!
