I have had my laptop, running OS/2, configured with a static IP for a long
time. I had no problems when traveling using dial up.

On a recent trip I came across motels with LAN connections in the room. I
configured the laptop to use DHCP which worked. Later at another motel I tried
to use a dial up connection but as long as TCP was configured for DHCP I could
not make a dial up connection. Anyone know how to fix this?

Over Thanksgiving I went to my son's house. I tried to connect to his Linksys
router with DHCP but it would not work (all his windows machines are using
DHCP). I configured a static IP and had no problems. Is there anything
special that needs to be done to have OS/2 use DHCP with a Linksys router?
