Hey guys,
I have not practically experienced it but a doubt came in my mind.

Suppose i have obtained my IP from DHCP server and the server refreshes IP addresses every hour an hour.Now say i am downloading a video(500MB) from youtube with 10kb/sec. What will happen ?

As after half an hour my IP will change then still download will remain continued or gets failed ?

Please answer it...

    umm, I believe the cleint can extend its lease time when its lease duration is about to expire. This should be applying not only when a file is being downloaded , but as long as you are conencted to internet.
