Can't contact bridge after router gives it new DHCP IP #96

Open cliffspencer opened 9 years ago

My new DSL router is handing out a different dynamic IP to the bridge each time the router reboots (contrary to the previous behavior) and there appears to be no way to assign a consistent DHCP address to a device. This means that the SDK can no longer establish a connection to the bridge. Currently this forces me to pushlink each time the router reboots. Thanks Verizon. Is there any alternative to this? Is there some way that when I call enableLocalConnection the bridge can be discovered? Thanks,

Cliff
