Re: Unable to get a new IP address

You should come back with the same IP for the same MAC..

Other than maybe an IP limit, it sounds normal (change MAC, don't get an IP, will likely be an IP limit)

An IP limit being Teksavvy setting up DHCP in a similar fashion to how we configure our DHCP server on our routers. Assigning a small pool of IPs to our LANs and setting a lease time.

I think the new MAC no IP has to do with what you mentioned before, needing to power off/on the modem. I'll find out this evening.
