Thanks, but that isn't what I want to do. I want to make the router always assign a specific IP address based on the Mac address in my ethernet card. Robin said all the routers he has seen allow this, so I would like him to explain it for WRT54G. This is one of the most popular ones out there. I can't find this setting. I'd like to know where it is hiding.
I know how to change the lease on DHCP and how to assign static addresses. Both useful tasks, but neither are what I would like to do.
