Curt,
Ok... so you dont own the network, thats the issue, you own 3 out
of 128 ip's. In this case definetly use your isp's gateway (whatever they
suggest you use (usually x.x.x.1), your broadcast will probably be
x.x.x.127, network address would be x.x.x.0, but you dont need to worry

Ah. The three IPs are in a block. I sit corrected.
I dont believe so... There is no such thing as a block of 3 IP's AFAIK,
you can make a subnet of 8 ip's, inwhich you use 3 of them for your net

Well, in my particular case, I have three static IPs in a
class C block, but my subnet is 255.255.255.128 so it's
not within the entire class C block. However, my IPs aren't
sequential and are as much as 50 apart (sequentially speaking)
- which leads me to assume that someone else has IPs
So, I got it in my head that I wanted to take my windows laptop,
make it dual-boot with mandrake, and then be able to do wireless
ethernet on it. Has anyone mucked about with this stuff? Seems

I'm currently using a Lucent Technologies WaveLAN Silver pcmcia card in
my Dell Inspiron. The linux drivers for it seem finicky (then again, the
whole pcmcia package for linux is flakey). I also use this card a lot in

In WebTechniques magazine, Lincoln Stein briefly mentioned his home
network set up and how he has wireless LAN cards for his laptops. He
drops a few name brands that may point you in one direction or another.
Sounds really cool, though.

an antenna on either the Airport or the wavelan nic). I know the WaveLAN
base stations have a much greater range (and are also about twice as
expensive).

Why do I have to tell clippernet that I'm using my static-IP'd eth0 as
