Post by NoFX on Jul 10^th, 2007 at 12:23pm

hello to all�
I liked to know as i can change the IP and mask of the linkstar�
in my linksat i have this mask ( 255.255.255.248 ) and only accepted 5 pc's in the network, but in my network i have 15 pc's...

I need a new mask...
I can�t use a router becouse i'm in Angola, and i dont have here any one ... and i have to put all network working fine until tomorow ...

In fact you havent the right to alter the mask of your provider's subnet, for that you have to play with your internal lan via a router which can be done by either using a combination of a router+16port switch or with a server having RIP+NAT active
