I recently updated my W 95 Dial-up Networking program with an update version 1.4 !   Afterwards I now get a message at various times before & after logging on to the internet that says:

         This DHCP client was unable to obtain an IP network address from a DHCP server. Do you want to see future alerts?

Then I am asked whether to continue or discontinue future use of this alert?  Since my knowledge is rather weak in how this is routinely used & what value it has  - I have continue to request the alert.  What advice may you offer on what action to take -
what parameters do I need to evaluate to - further investigate why this occurs or just  disregard it, thanks?
