These tend to create a lot of problems. I'd take it up with that company or author. I know it sounds horrible but the company I do support for won't support any IDM.

My problem is that whenever my router is rebooted, because the power is down or for any other reason, I can't then watch any live stream, except those from www.new.livestream.com. Some streams are loading forever and won't begin, while others, using JW player, show this message: "Server not found: rtmpt://<ip number>:80/redirect".
The problem extends to include downloads. I'm using internet download manager, and at the current time version 6.20 build 5. Whenever my router is rebooted, I try to resume a downloading file or download a new file and I noticed that in the grey details panel under the Info tab most of the records appear Disconnect. or SEND GET. although they were showing Receiving data... before the router is rebooted.
I searched all over the internet for a solution for this exact problem but I found nothing related. I tried a solution about changing the static IPv4 address, but this had nothing to do with my problem.
The only way to make live streams work and to fix the download issue is to turn off my router and wait for while and then turn it on again. I understand that turning off the router for a long while or at least five minutes will change the IP address if it is a dynamic address. However, each time I do this I check if the IP address has been changed, through running the cmd and typing ipconfig /all, I find that the IPv4 address has not been changed; it is always the same with the word (Preferred) next to it regardless the streams are working or not. Notice that this solution does not necessarily work at the first time; some times I have to turn off and turn on the router more than once until the streams work. I also tried using the Ethernet cable instead of the wireless connection, but of course the same problem occurs.
The stream I'm testing on is: testing stream, or you can go to www.usagoals.com and select the link to Sky Sports 1.
At the current time I'm setting my IPv4 of my WIFI connection on "Obtain an IP address automatically" and "Obtain DNS server address automatically".
I have updated my Adobe Flash Player to the latest version (at this moment version 14 plugin).
I'm on Windows 8 64-bit.
There are some cases I did not try, such as doing a 'telnet <ServerName> 80'. I actually don't understand what this is and how to do it.
I'll appreciate your helpful replies and explanations.
