I assume you are getting your IP from a computer plugged into the cable modem and then using that address to IP your router
One thing to rememebr is this.. Most cable modems these days will rememebr the MAC that it was attatched to.. so you will either need to set the MAC on your router so it looks like the computer you where using... .. or just reboot the cable modem after your router is plugged into it.. that will allow it to grab to new MAC address from the router. You may need to do that even if you are using: int e0 ip address dhcp "McHugh Randy" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Can anyone please tell me if they have been able to make a Cisco 2514 Router > hold a DHCP address to an ethernet interface so I can do NAT with overload > for me cable internet connection?
