Static addressing consists of turning off the DHCP feature and manually assigning addresses in the same subnet as the router interface.
If the router interface is 192.168.15.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 then you can statically asign anything from 192.168.15.2 through 192.168.15.254 > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chip Hart > Sent: Thursday, March 03, 2005 6:50 AM > To: Slim Devices Discussion > Subject: Re: [slim] WRT54G and static IPs > > Robin Bowes wrote: > > 1.
