Trey, It sounds like you might not be working with DHCP service with this ISP. Check your Windows side to see how the installed software set it up, as it should have listed "automatic" or just the static IP address. You might check with Adelphia also to see what they give you, dhcp or static. If it's static, it's still pretty simple to fix in your Network Devices settings, you just have to drop a few things in manually.

No, it's definitely DHCP. I had inquired about getting a static IP, but it was outrageously expensive. Plus, they don't allow you to run servers of any type. AAARRGGGHHH. Anyway, is there any reason why Windows would be able to get an IP address and Linux wouldn't? I remember someone mentioning a problem a while back about issues with hotels when they traveled that offered high speed. They could connect with Windows, but their Linux laptop had a lot of issues. Thanks.
