I have the APO all configured with static IPs, the only DHCP I'm doing is
for the ABO.. Once I get this into my WISP setup, the MAC for the ABO will
authenticate against the DHCP server.. If the MAC isn't in the DHCP
server, it won't get an address.. So, if I run into that problem, they
will not have an address at all... That could be interesting, but isn't
the problem I'm seeing now..
