DHCP Woes since Last Update

Win 7 Pro x64. AIS 18.4.2338.

Ever since the install of the latest version my NIC takes an age (5+minutes) to get a new IP address lease (DHCPNACK message).

During this time (of course) Avast cannot launch its emergency update task.

When it finally succeeds I can browse, email, etc. just fine. The PC is routinely rebooted daily.

I have tried: repair, clean install (each twice), flush ARP cache, repair Winsock, flushdns & all the usual DNS fixes. No go.

Any ideas anybody?

TIA

Same for me. I have multiple DHCP nack error per day since Avast 18.2. Now is 18.5 and still not solved.

Others testing the latest Beta are reporting here https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=220998.msg1471424#msg1471424 that is fixed.

Let’s hope so…

They talking about DNS not about DHCP. Two different things.

Oops. You’re right. I should learn to read more thoroughly :o
