We are running DHCP now, we are just looking to get rid of it as we change some things around. We're looking to tie addresses together, so that we have static ethernet addresses on the 192.168.0.x range where x = the machine ID and have the static wifi addresses be in the 192.168.1.x range
So if I see something on x.x.x.45 I know at a glance that it can only be one computer. It eliminates ambiguity. On Fri, Mar 8, 2013 at 12:22 PM, Matthew W.
