zone alarm

I've been using zone alarm with a cable modem for a while now without any problems, but lately when I leave the computer idle and it goes into it's lock mode, I unlock and try to connect it doesn't work. I have to manually go into the ip config and renew the IP. Before, I could get home from work, unlock and open browser or email. Also, now it seems if I wait about five minutes after unlock, the modem will find an IP. Not a big deal but it was a little quicker to just unlock and connect. Any ideas on this one?
Thanks

dtro,

Go to the Security Settings in ZA. Click on the Advanced tab. Under "Other Computers" you should have a DHCP server listed. This is shown when you run "winipcfg" under "more info".
At least that's what my cable provider told me and it seems to work.
