I just get sick of configuring units, such as mikrotik, and switching devices and then having to wait until DHCP times out. Pretty annoying when you have 50 Mikrotik boards to configure. Takes longer for me to wait on DHCP than to drop the config file on it. -- Justin Wilson <j...@mtin.net> http://www.mtin.net/blog xISP News http://www.twitter.com/j2sw Follow me on Twitter Wisp Consulting Tower Climbing Network Support

I tried looking into it a while ago, but did not find anything that easily. Had to tell my customers to wait 5 minutes to startup the computer once they booted up the radio.
