Hello,

Hope it is O.K to post this here.
I'm about to change my network configuration due to getting DSL.
Is it possible to have Static IP's and DHCP on a home network?

This is what I would like to achieve:

DSL Router (192.168.1.1 DHCP "ON" set at 192.168.1.200 offer 3 addresses)
3Com WAP (192.168.1.254 DHCP is set "Off" and plugged into DSL Router)

PC 1 plugged directly into DSL Router fixed IP: 192.168.1.10
PC 2 Wireless link fixed IP: 192.168.1.11
PC 3 Wireless link fixed IP: 192.168.1.12
PC 4 Wireless link fixed IP: 192.168.1.13

I will also connect with Wireless with 2 laptops, and PDA set with DHCP
Hopefully they will pick up 1 off the 3 addresses from the DHCP on the Router.

Will this work with Fixed and DHCP or is one or the other not mixed??
PC's are XP Home & Pro, PDA is CE2002

Many Thanks - David @ UK
