I was dealing with a flaky router for a while so I set up a batch file
to speed up the process, put that in the root of my C: drive and then
made shortcut for it on my desktop.

You can use Notepad to create a file called releaseandrenew.bat

c:\windows\system32\ipconfig.exe /release
c:\windows\system32\ipconfig.exe /renew
pause

I put the "pause" in so that the dos window wouldn't close immediately
and I could view the results before pressing a key to close the window.
