Something happened and I lost a work unit that was 81% complete. The odd thing is that I had an IP address conflict on my home network that was coincident with this work unit loss. This is the second time this has happened.

I believe the random method my router uses to assign network addresses might be causing a conflict if I reboot my router and the address assigned to a folding PC changes while F@H is running.

I rebooted everything, the network conflict disappeared and everything started working again. The PC that caused the problem downloaded a new WU and started working on it.

I believe I can force the network address assignment that occurs by connecting the PCs to the router in a specific order, but I can't do that if the router reboot occurs when I'm not around. (Power failure.)
