[QUOTE="dan828, post: 1048542, member: 8468"] When you join a network you "lease" an IP address on the network. They usually have a timeout of a day or so, where you device is assigned a number and it's what the network uses to communicate with your device. If you renew the lease, your device asked whatever is controlling the network (probably a router) to lease the IP address again for whatever set period it is set to. [/QUOTE]
