Yes I know about going to wi-fi, but when I go to settings it doesnt say anything under ip information..I just jailbroke my phone, how do I find it?

when in the wi-fi menu, touch the small blue arrow associated with your access point. it will open your network info

renew lease? on what? what are you talking about?

You don't find your IP address, it finds you.

Renewing the lease causes your device to release the current IP address (DHCP_RELEASE) and renew (Discover, Offer, DHCP_REQUEST & Ack) back to the DHCP server (your router). If that doesn't work try using an IP address off of your current subnet and putting it on the phone manually.

well how do I do that?

Posted by: b0r0n

on the screen where "it's all blank" scroll to the bottom and there's a button that says "Renew Lease"

If you don't see the button, you're either in the wrong screen, or not set to DHCP for some reason. If that's the case, scroll back up to the top, set it to DHCP and then renew the lease. If that doesn't work, then you'll need to look into a manual configuration as the previous poster mentioned.

I must be tripping cause its still not showing up at all.

Like on the bottom all it says is something about HTTP proxy

it's a big white box right above HTTP proxy... it looks like a text field, but it's a button. If you're set on "BootP" or "Static" there will not be a Renew Lease button

Has nothing to do with being "noon" or whatever kind of corny computer lingo you are using. Im not an idiot, nor am I stupid. Before I jailbroke my iphone the ip used to be there. There is NO renew lease button on my phone and the big white box he talked about above proxy has "Client ID" nothing says renew lease in it.
