Just to get things right: if i go with Subnet: 255.255.252.0 I can then have my range from: 192.168.0.0 -> 192.168.3.255 with 192.168.0.0 = Subnet Address and 192.168.3.25*5 *= Broadcast Address.
And yes I did get the "Advanced Subnet Calculator", do I really need to count 0 and 1, it was like 40 year ago I took Binary in school. Anyhow thanks all for your help as usual.
