Sorry for the confusion. Yes, I have to networks one main and second backup network. So my main network (gateway) is 10.0.0.1 and this is the network I want that device to be on (it is an ATA phone adapter 4xFXS). [snip] > So hold on a second. I am lost.

I am pretty sure octet 0 is reserved for the last word? I.e. > valid IP addresses run from *.*.*.1 to *.*.*.254? Yes, that is was causing me confusion. But I solve it. I set my backup network (in order to access the device via browser) to Gateway 192.168.0.05 (last digits anything lower than 1) and DHCP pool range to 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.20 > 192.168.0.0 refers actually to the network and not any particular > machines, and 192.168.0.255 is the broadcast address for the > 192.168.0.0 network.... > > Can't you move the gateway to something like 192.168.0.254 with the > DHCP range 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.180?

I've change the Lan Setting on that ATA device to DHCP and assign the static IP to 10.0.0.111 and I can access it now. -- #Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
