Generally, the first to respond.
here is my before setup: I live in a mobile house with a porch that has been converted into a room. my internet runs from my living room.that runs 4 feet to the right to an XBMC box. then I was running wirelessly to the next room for my office computer. Then my brother moved in. at that point I ran a line from my modem to the office and to the wall in the office that was about 50 feet. I put a wall plate in and ran a line under the house to my brothers room (the one that was a porch). My brothers computer was a windows machine so the modem/router assigned it the ip 192.168.0.2 with the XBMC being 192.168.0.3 and the office computer being 192.168.0.4 . I then created a bunch of virtual machines for Linux from Scratch and then bought a used xp machine ($20) to designate for LFS. So I needed to hook the internet to it so this is why I was asking a month ago about connecting another router to my system..... so I didn't need to run another 50 foot cable. So now the 50 foot cable runs to the other router and that feeds my brothers computer and the new computer. Here is the confusion. I configured the other router to asssign numbers from 192.168.0.125 to 192.168.0.254 but my brothers computer is still 192.168.0.2 and the new computer 's ip is 192.168.0.14. Why isn't it 192.168.0.125 and why isn't my brother's computer (which is now MX14 <antix/mepis corroboration which are debian derivatives>) now something like 192.168.0.126 ?
