Hi all i've had this problem where on a reboot i get the 1003 dhcp error and every 2 days i have to disable and enable my connection otherwise mt ip doesn't renew. Have xp sp2 and also using norton internet security 2005. i am on cable so maybe there is a config problem with the firewall or is it an sp2 bug? Thanks for any assistance!

Make sure sp2 firewall is turned off. sometimes it comes back on.
