Unfortunately, I don't use the stock firmware, so I don't actually know the answer. You could flash OpenWrt on it, and then have all the OpenWrt tools, which I'm know absolutely allows you to specify DHCP ranges as well as reserve leases by mac address. Is it possible that you can rely on zeroconf to locate your printer? And just let it take a dynamic address, but find it using multicast DNS. If you want to put OpenWrt on it, I can help with that. -- Russell Senior ``I have nine fingers; you have ten.'' seni...@aracnet.com _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
