Hey,

I'm trying to run a task that auto shuts off any network connectivity at night. Does anyone know, if I just do a ipconfig /release, will that work? Or will windows under any circumstance try to obtain a new IP lease?

Any information would be greatly appreciated. I've tested this briefly, but I'm just looking for any reason it might not work as I intend.
