how do I stop this? "trying to use old lease in"

[idee]

Every 20 minutes the system is searching for a network that doesn't exist. This is a standalone system. Below are the messages. How do I stop these? They seem to slow things down after a while.


: eth0: trying to use old lease in `/var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-eth0.info'

: eth0: broadcasting for a lease


thanks,
