FWIW, that sounds correct for the typical IP lease length of seven days which renews at half life. Bear in mind that this "DHCP" message is for the DOCSIS / WAN / management IP address for the modem and has nothing to do with anything connected to the LAN.

sortofageek Not Trouble Premium,Mod join:2001-08-19 There & Then kudos:14 Host: Comcast HSI Comcast Cable TV Team Helix Distributed Comput.. Linksys	reply to GmDude66 IMO, this version of the firmware shows those DHCP "warnings," but they are not an issue. I suspect they were there with the older firmware or, at least, the same normal things were happening. We just didn't see them. They show up now at the intervals set by the DHCP server, but nothing bad is happening. It's just business as usual between you and that server. If they set the intervals at six days, you would see the message every six days, but they would be just as unimportant to your connection as they are now. If there was a problem with renewing your IP, you would lose connection. You would know there was a problem without even looking at those logs. -- Join Team Helix * I am praying for these friends .

Linksys	True, I just can't tell from the messages if that is the half-life check or not. The point, of course, is that those messages are not a problem. Just messages which can be ignored if one does not lose connection. -- Join Team Helix * I am praying for these friends .

I agree, here's my log and the DHCP warnings occur once a week at the same time (+10 seconds). The new firmware was downloaded on July 24th.

telcodad join:2011-09-16 Lincroft, NJ kudos:2 1 edit	I think OldschoolDSL was just pointing out that he saw a new Firmware version on his SB6120 ("Firmware Name: SB_KOMODO-1.0.6.6-SCM00-NOSH") and a new Software download ("SW Download INIT - Via Config file d11_m_sb6120_economyplus_c01.cm"). Is the modem firmware version contained in that speed tier .cm "Config" file, or is it downloaded separately to the modem? I know you get new Config files when changing speed tiers without changing the modem's firmware version.

EG The wings of love Premium join:2006-11-18 Union, NJ kudos:9	The firmware is loaded via TFTP via the config file. That's typically the primary method. There are others if it fails for some reason.
