Can someone point me in the right direction?
Get a better router that supports DNS as well as DHCP?
My landlord owns the router. I think the easiest setup for me would be
if the router could assign a predetermined ip for a given mac_address.
I can't setup my computers to use fixed ip as they are portables and
leave the house. I use fixed ip outside the DHCP range for my desktop.
But you have to figure out what the DHCP range in use. I am assuming
RFC1918 addresses (I am an author of it). Which net is your landlord
using? So DHCP servers assign from the top of the range, others from
the bottom. At least this has been my observations. Don't go using an
address within the range or you will get burned when the router assigns
someone else with your IP address.
