[cobalt-users] Dynamic IP and Cable Modem



Hello all,
                sorry if this question has already been asked but I cant
find info anywhere.

I am about to have a cable modem installed and want to connect it to my
Qube2.
The cable modem issues a Dynamic IP address, which is leased for 24hours
then could change.

I have been using the Qube2 with dial-on-demand PPP without any problems up
until now.

Just as a test I tried connecting the Qube2 to a friends cable modem, but
when I do this,
I only see options on the Qubes Webmin - Secondary Network to enter a static
IP address and subnet ?

My question is what do I need to do to configure the Qube2 to work with this
cable modem and pick up dynamic IP addresses ?

Thanks in advance

KJ.
