In my case, the router is the IP > distributor (it also works as a firewall). I install about 3 Airport network per week and I never use a router to do what you are trying to do. I do assign IP for each Cpu regardless if they are using an Airport card or not. I do use switches instead of hubs for the hardwired machines tho.. The Airport base station act as a router/firewall also. And regardless if they are Mac OS 8, 9 or X and also mix them, with Window machines. Everybody is on the internet at the same time with 1 IP.. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
