UNSOLVED
ICS and IP addressing
can anyone make an ICS addressing recommendation. Since ICS implement AIPA to dynamically assign addresses from the 169.XXX.XXX.XXX address space and my broadband router uses DHCP to dynamically assign addresses from the 192.168.2.XXX address space.... well you can see the problem.
I want to use ICS on a V.92 internal modem while I wait for my broadband connection. Any suggestions. I am starting to think I need to go to static IPs
thanks..ji
Well,
I decided to go with a proxy solution using the proxy from ANALOG X.
It sidesteps the issue, lets me keep DHCP running on the broadband router so I can easily convert to the broadband connection when i get it in and not worry about the addressing conflicts between ICS (because I'm not running ICS) and DHCP.

The proxy software is simple to use and so far been foollproof.

You need to put your router in access point mode in order to use it with ICS. That way it will not act as a DHCP server and will just serve like a hub. When you get the broadband connection configure the router to act a router again and disable ICS.
