I have the same router, but use Tomato instead of the stock firmware. Setting "static DHCP" is easy with that firmware. All you have to do is assign an IP address outside of the normal DHCP range to the MAC address (hardware address) of the network card on your server. I don't remember if it is equally easy or more difficult with the stock firmware.
Another, potentially better, approach is to set a true static IP in the network settings of your server itself. How you do that depends on the OS. And yes, it's no problem at all having some devices with fixed IPs and some using DHCP. Just make sure that you set the static IPs to addresses that are outside the range of addresses that your router doles out via DHCP. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60727 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
