all the devices here use dhcp, but they all also have dhcp reservations. the SBS runs on a wired to the router desktop that always ends .2 the SBR is always .4 that has been that way for years, and was yesterday when i did the SBS upgrade. as for what to blame, i have no idea, but i do know that when i upgrade SBS to a newer version than the current working version, is when it happens, and i think it happens almost every time. its as if the SBR freaks out and "forgets" some of the settings, just b/c SBS was upgraded. erland;612477 Wrote: > I haven't tried it myself, but if you have a router(or hub/switch), I > think you should connect SBR to the router and also connect the > computer running net-udap to the router, both using standard network > cables.
