>>We have a Linksys Router plugged into our server and workstations with static IP addresses contecting to Road Runner's service via cable modem attached to the Linksys. Everything is working fine, but every once and a while a user will not be able to get on. The max number of users is not exceeded either. This is sometimes resolved by restarting the PC workstation. Other times, when that does not work, the solution is to go into the IP configurations, remove the IP, put the same IP address back, then it works, or sometimes after that and a restart, and it works. This implies some IP refresh type thing is needed. Can someone explain why this happens? If there is no way to avoid this, is there a way to code a bat file or something that will refresh the IP similar to the manual way I would do it?

Have you ever run into something like that or heard of someone who has? I imagine there are a lot of people out there using Linksys in a similar network environment. I am hoping I can find someone else who has run into this and may have a solution.

ipconfig /renew
just doing that on one of the 2000 machines it says:
"No adapters bound to TCP/IP are enabled for DHCP"
