So what is providing the DHCP service?


Well, I guess they figure it out. lol I have the network set to DHCP on my puter, the router has it and the modem. So far, it works out the IP part at least. I really hadn't thought about it that much to be honest. This is the first few hops with a traceroute that shows how it is getting to the internet:

traceroute to google.com (74.125.157.104), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
 1  192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1)  0.248 ms  0.356 ms  0.480 ms
 2  192.168.1.254 (192.168.1.254)  9.174 ms  9.406 ms  9.639 ms
3 adsl-95-128-1.jan.bellsouth.net (98.95.XXX.XX) 24.658 ms 34.443 ms 43.800 ms
 4  12.81.48.52 (12.81.48.52)  66.552 ms  79.846 ms  82.490 ms
 5  12.81.48.46 (12.81.48.46)  100.020 ms  110.546 ms  120.420 ms
6 ixc01mem-pos-7-0-0.bellsouth.net (65.83.239.97) 130.498 ms 38.126 ms 39.427 ms

I put some X's in my IP. We never know who else may be reading this. You see anything wrong with the hops? Should I cut DHCP off on something, maybe two somethings?
