I am angered by my neatgear 4 port router as I only can use 32 ips assigned dynamically. Is there anyway to make it do more.

Thanks
Garrett.

no I believe 32 is the limit for it, but just set up another computer as the dhcp server. your router can act as a client you know.

How big is your network? you can always use the static IPs one some of the machines...

I will probally have about 60 pcs on this lan party(well get togeather for that size). Just having the router doing dhcp would be simple but I can just set up my server as the server. The problem I see is that my server may need to be restarted a few times and that could be a pain. I guess thats what I will do unless I can get dhcp to work the way I want. Is this becuase of a subnet they have used. If so can I remove it.

Thanks
Garrett.
