Hi Dave,

I've just configured it to 1, but i've earlier tried every possible
combination, that means i've tried 0,1 and dhcp without any sucees.


In config.pl, I've wrote this:

$Conf{DHCPAddressRanges} = [
  {
    'first' => '100',
    'ipAddrBase' => '192.168.1',
    'last' => '150'
  }
];

My Gateway is 192.168.1.1. I own a Linksys router, which i have
configured to be in DHCP mode.
This mode begins with 192.168.1.100 and 50 machines can connect.

Regards
