I was just looking at this thread:

Try replacing 24.210.82.102 in your loginserver.ini and boot5zones.bat with your DNS name dhcp024-210-082-102.columbus.rr.com
Then add an entry into your c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\host file:
192.168.0.1 dhcp024-210-082-102.columbus.rr.com
That appears to be what the guy in the above post had to do according to the last post in that thread I referred to.
