Most Linux users, or most users that this device is aimed at are intelligent enough to do a "ip addr add 192.168.0.200/32 dev usb0" "ip route add 192.168.0.202/32 dev usb0" This will only make two addresses on your network inaccessible. Then you can SSH into it, and change the IP address. This takes a whole 5 minutes! It'll make you miserable to not have connectivity, I understand, but just handle it. We've finally standardized on a set of IPs, and -everyone- is happy with it, except a few individuals who don't know how to use their system.
Please stop complaining. -Thanks On Thu, Dec 18, 2008 at 9:19 AM, Tilman Baumann <[email protected]> wrote: > One word. > zeroconf > > Oh, it is two words zeroconf and bonjour > > www.zeroconf.org/ > > PS: As fallback for DHCP of course. > > Esben Stien wrote: >> Why on earth would you choose 192.168.0.*? >> >> This is probably the most common IP address on an internal network in >> the world and of course this means problems. >> >> If your network is configured with this IP range and you pop a >> freerunner in, it of course cause a world of pain.
