If you have a router in front of them create a src nat and dst nat rule for them then you can take it easy or not bother do the truck roll and just do it if you want in the area of one of the clients.
Very easy to do with something like a MikroTik, StarOS or Imagestream router. /Eje Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2009 11:51:49 To: WISPA General List<[email protected]> Subject: Re: [WISPA] ARTICLE - What's the U.S. Doing Wrong with Broadband ? no, don't have my own space yet. The renumbering isn't normally too bad. I did that not long ago, to shuffle around some subnets and make space for more clients. Painlessly and nobody noticed. However, I have ONE access point that's "legacy" with clients back from my startup time and it has a number of non-dhcp clients on it. This WILL involve a lot of drive time, to get all them fixed. The access points themselves do all the routing and store the DHCP settings, so, it's just a matter of downloading the config, hand altering it, and uploading. Our ip's are assigned to MAC addresses and it's really not all that troublesome. I just use a word processor and and do a "replace" for the first 3 and hand assign the rest. Takes perhaps 10 minutes per AP. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ <insert witty tagline here> ----- Original Message ----- From: "David E.
