It took me a while to answer and I think my response was

I am connected to a wireless bridge. I have pplbroadband.
www.pplbroadband.com , which is Broadband Over Power
line. Prior to that I had a one way cable modem. Believe
it or not, this works better, at least when it IS
connected, it is fast.
On my MSBBN i have the lease time set to 2 weeks, so I
don't know why it is re-setting every two hours.
