Is this IP change due to having changed the stanza in

iface
eth0 inet *dhcp* ?
Please see your other thread on connectivity. Have x as 40 and use
ifdown followed by ifup.
Thanks Brian
I had already changed that and I am back to the original problem of  
loosing connectivity after a reboot.
The /etc/network/interfaces file reads (in its entirety):
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
#iface eth0 inet dhcp   ## This reflects the earlier suggestion about  
changing static to dhcp
    address 192.168.1.40
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    network 192.168.1.0
    broadcast 192.168.1.255
    gateway 192.168.1.254
    # dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if  
installed
    dns-nameservers 158.43.240.4
    dns-search org
However, as noted - this returns full circle to the original issues.
