Hi Vincent: I'll check out the range in the manual. I *think* that it specifies a start address and a pool count, which would give the range. >It absolutely does not matter >as long as everything that expects to "see" each other within the >home uses the same subnetting. Ok. Pardon me for being dim (it is a newbies forum) but is (say) x.x.0.5 on the same subnet as (say) x.x.1.11. I would have thought not, as the third number, 0 and 1 would put them on different subnets. Chris
