[quote=“mkstreet, post: 44037, member: 24215”]Tom, the SVN version seems to be working. I haven’t done a truly scientific analysis, but I think we are consistently not having the problem. The few times it has blown past to Windows I think are due to a loose or bad Ethernet cable. If I remain on this SVN version, will I be cut off (orphaned) from regular product updates to Fog?
Uncle Frank, I am interested in the idea of running my own DHCP. From my perspective, I wouldn’t feel like I needed to use the exact same IP addresses, unless that is a requirement for your plan? I wouldn’t be able to shut down the ISP’s DHCP. So, whatever we did would have to be something I could completely affect / setup / configure from my side, on my own. The ISP is staff and service are worthless, at best.[/quote]
I think that Uncle Frank is planning on helping you configure your router & switches to block their DHCP altogether. It’s easily doable. Then, you can just set your own up (or let FOG handle it).
Also, you can upgrade from one SVN revision to another without any issues. I do it sometimes at my work.
Also, one more thing… Just want to see how far away your DHCP server is; out of pure curiosity…
[CODE]tracert 1.179.130.137[/CODE]
That will tell you how many routers are between your host & the DHCP server.
