Sorry, my danish is too poor yet to write in danish, but hopefully
someone can help me.
I just moved to Denmark (in order to learn the language). I ordered
dsl and got the modem and now I have access. But it works completely
different from the way it works in germany.
I have ordered two dynamical IP adresses, but have four machines. My
order was mistunderstood. It will be changed, but takes a while.
Now as I unhook one machine and connect the third or fourth one, it
will not work. Those machines do not get an IP by the modem and when
I go back to the other machine, that one won't work neither. Are the
IP adresses assigned for a limited amount of time??? How long is that
time, I have to wait?
Thanks.

Unless you release your DHCP lease, you will have to wait for it to
expire, before it can be assigned to a new machine, I believe the lease
time is 1 or 2 hours.

That's what I figured. I just found a statement telling me the 'lease'
time. It is one hour. How can I release the DHCP lease??? I would
like to change between the systems as wanted. For example switch to
linux etc?

Depends on your DHCP client.

In windows there is a winipcfg program you can use to release it.
But lookup your dhcp client documentation

In WIN XP it is ipconfig /release

ipconfig /release works with Win 2000, too.
SuSE requires a 'rcdhclient start/stop/restart'
other Linux distributions I did not test, but will be similar.

For my part I'm running three PCs (win98) on two dynamic ips and two
of the PCs are set to release the lease on shutdown - via Xteq Systems
X-Setup v.6.1 ( http://www.xteq.com)
However it's possible to release manually via winipcfg.exe as well
