[QUOTE="ukchucktown, post: 1125449, member: 129039"] You are not looking at a bug, just a misconfiguration. It should not be necessary to perform any configuration on the PC or the MAC. If you set them both to use dynamic addresses they will each get an address assigned by the router. If DHCP is enabled on your router then the router will assign addresses based on what you tell it. Most home network users stick with assigning addresses between 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.254. The 255 address is a special address known as the broadcast address. You don't assign that address to nodes on a network. It has a special purpose. To be clear, the router address should be 88.163.124.202 and the router default gateway should be 88.163.124.254 and the two nodes on your private network (PC and MAC) should have addresses in the 192.168.0.* range. That's what you want. [/QUOTE]
