[QUOTE="Ember1205, post: 1724315, member: 374272"] Both of those statements are incorrect. Firstly, MOST home network devices defaults to 192.168.1.xxx. Secondly, there are 256 possible addresses that are available on that network. They are allocated as follows: 0 - Network address (special, reserved) 1 - The router's address, pre-configured 255 - Broadcast address (special, reserved) That leaves 253 addresses that could potentially be used by other devices on the network.
