this is what I did with my home setup. on my wireless router set the

192.168.1.15 <http://192.168.1.15> and use 192.168.1.16
<http://192.168.1.16> as your DHCP pool start address.

Hi Karl,
Your suggestion isn't accurate ...
... the OP clearly wants to have static IP adresses,
so your hint is nonsense !!!

You may go as you like and be happy !! ;-)
Myself too I always prefer static IP's in my setups ! ;-D

Cheers, svobi

having now read this i see the problem change your router to static IPs
that is the prob.its trying to recycle then at 09.30 why use a router
when your machine is acting as a router?
