[MLB-WIRELESS] DNS, DHCP, static ip...

[Michael McKinnon]

There is also the option of the A class 10.x.x.x range as well.  This gives
a much larger space to work with, not that it is needed, yet (:-) as opposed
to the 192.168's and 172.23's which are both only B classes...

Is anybody on this list involved with DSL providers at all?

A few of them do some interesting things with routing it seems... a lot of
4 IP subnets used for routing traffic over that is essentially a point to
point ethernet connection (way better than pppoe).

At least one provider (flow?) use 172.24.*.* type networks for their
internal routing.
