As you instructed, I assigned a new IP address to my router to match the
subnet the gateway PC uses. (192.168.0.x) However, I wasn't able to figure
out how to set the range of IP addresses the gateway computer doles out in
order to prevent it from using the one I assigned to my router. This may
eventually cause a potential IP address conflict so I wonder if you know
where I go to make these changes on my XP gateway computer ?


According to Steve's page below you can't change the range.

There's no mention of whether some of the numbers can be reserved but
I suspect not.

You might look what ip addresses are being issued to the computers and
use one which is likely never to be used. Maybe a high end number
(say) 250?
