You should only have one DHCP server on your network. If you have
multiple DHCP servers (both routers), which one is the computer going to
pick to get its IP address from?

here is my before setup: I live in a mobile house with a porch that
has been converted into a room. my internet runs from my living
room.that runs 4 feet to the right to an XBMC box. then I was running
wirelessly to the next room for my office computer. Then my brother
moved in. at that point I ran a line from my modem to the office and
to the wall in the office that was about 50 feet. I put a wall plate
in and ran a line under the house to my brothers room (the one that
was a porch). My brothers computer was a windows machine so the
modem/router assigned it the ip 192.168.0.2 with the XBMC being
192.168.0.3 and the office computer being 192.168.0.4 . I then created
a bunch of virtual machines for Linux from Scratch and then bought a
used xp machine ($20) to designate for LFS. So I needed to hook the
internet to it so this is why I was asking a month ago about
connecting another router to my system..... so I didn't need to run
another 50 foot cable. So now the 50 foot cable runs to the other
router and that feeds my brothers computer and the new computer. Here
is the confusion. I configured the other router to asssign numbers
from 192.168.0.125 to 192.168.0.254 but my brothers computer is still
192.168.0.2 and the new computer 's ip is 192.168.0.14. Why isn't it
192.168.0.125 and why isn't my brother's computer (which is now MX14
<antix/mepis corroboration which are debian derivatives>) now
something like 192.168.0.126 ?
