There are couple of questions as to how your network is working. But, you can
always get a new IP by running:
/etc/init.d/network restart
Does your router get an IP from Charter? Take a look on how it is configured.
There should be a way to check if it has an IP.
It could just be that it's not handing out IP's when ask to. Try setting
static IP's for the two computers. If that works all the time then that's the
area of your problem. Act accordingly.
