Agreed. Some other possibilities (I think I had the second
one on my cable setup) are
255.255.255.126
255.255.255.124
255.255.255.120
255.255.255.112
255.255.255.96
255.255.255.64
Getting the wrong one is still likely to work fine, because
you'll never be talking to another machine on the same subnet
anyway. Remember that *inside* the firewall you have a different
subnet--this is only for the Airport.
