[Elecraft] K4 Firmware Updating

[Fred Jensen]

That is only true if DHCP is enabled in the router [it almost always is 
in home situations], AND the device you're connecting is configured to 
negotiate with DHCP for an IP address lease.  I don't have a K4 but I 
suspect there is at least one other attribute for the IP address setting 
that will activate DHCP negotiation with your router.
