I don't know what the Match section does. I am suspicious of it. 192.168.0.0 address block is /16, not /24. I'm in the US, and I use Verizon for my ISP. Verizon gadgets, like set top boxes and media centers, use 192.168.0.x addresses. I never put anything on 192.168.0.x. I start with 192.168.1.x. And on the Verizon network, I've never seen a 192.168.0.x gateway. Gateways also go on 192.168.1.x. So I'm a bit suspicious of the network assignments. Jeff
