I think my Netgear router will try to lease the same DHCP address to a
device based on MAC automatically each time the device queries for an
address (but I'm not 100% sure about that, never really watched it).  So the
problem is with the address changing?

I have my GS101 working with DHCP, I setup my dhcp server to give
out the same address each time. Like this

host bt101a {
         hardware ethernet          00:0b:82:xx:xx:xx;
         fixed-address              192.168.2.192;
         option routers             192.168.2.254;
         option domain-name-servers 192.168.2.10;
         option domain-name         "uucp" ;
         option log-servers         192.168.2.10 ;
#       option time-servers        192.168.2.10 ;
         option time-offset         -18000;     # Eastern Standard Time
         always-reply-rfc1048       true ;
}

I never could get my time server to work with the GS.
