When  I read  this  I thought  about  a conflict  with  a DHCP  server's
configuration.  For example  if DHCP can assign volatile  addresses in a
range of .100 to .253 an address of xxx.xxx.xxx.150 might be problematic
if the DHCP  server was on a gateway  to the Internet.  I am  sure I had
the Linksys  DHCP server  assigning static addresses  at one point  as a
RESULT OF a similar problem with my Linksys wireless router.

I could be all wet here, it is just a thought.
