You need to have a look at you router's dhcp range first (from it's admin pages) E.g. mine is 192.168.1.64 - 192.1.68.1.253 As long as you pick an address on the same subnet 192.168.1.x you will be fine. I picked 192.168.1.60 for example. x can be anything from 2 to 63. Avoid 0,1,254,255 as are special addresses and/or reserved usually. Note: if your subnet goes all the way from x.x.x.1 - x.x.x.254, and you are uncomfortable with altering the range just pick a number, say 200, that is unlikely ever to be allocated to a device by your dhcp server. Your internal address range might be different to mine (10.0.0.x is common) but the principle is the same. Just keep your chosen address on the same subnet (first three dotted number the same) Sorry if I'm teaching you to suck eggs, I'm not sure of your networking knowledge. -- browellm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ browellm's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14260 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45031 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
