Oracle / JDBC / DHCP

Question for anyone:

I am trying to open JDBC connections to an Oracle database, and the connections are created pretty slowly. My Java program and the Oracle database are both local (i.e. on the same box). In the connection string I am using the actual IP address of my box. My computer is using DHCP. In order to create this connection, does anyone know if the JDBC driver will still try to resolve off the DHCP server, versus simply checking the local computer's IP address first? If this is the case, then I think I have found my problem, as my DHCP server belongs to my cable modem provider. If not, then I am still hunting for answers! Thanks in advance.
