The solution is release the IP address from your NIC. Under Windows choose Start, Run and type "ipconfig /release".

This will release your IP and let Rogers DHCP server know that a new MAC address and IP is required.

Rogers support will enter 2 MAC addresses for you but suggested the previous solution.
