Computer internet connection dropping with ATA

| Anyone experienced this and any solutions:
SPA-2100 connects fine to internet via NTL cable modem. Using SPA as
router. If I leave the computer on but unused for a couple of hours
when I come back the Sipura connects fine to the internet and I can
make calls - but the computer has lost its connection and I can only
get it back by rebooting Sipura, cable modem, and computer. As you can
imagine it is painful to have to do this every couple of hours!
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks

DHCP lease time setting avaiable in the SPA ? set it to a large number
of days or to zero.

| Thanks for the tip Phil. It was set to 24 hours and I now set it to
0. I'll see if this solves the problem. BTW how does ATA interpret
the '0' setting?

usually DHCP server timeouts are turned off by entering zero, in fact
many things with time limit settings use this convention. So it will
grant a lease until 2037 or something similar.
