Thanks for the reply Dave. I was pointing out the inconsistencies in the web pages - I do know a bit about USB networking, use it every day for testing..... In actual fact, you can use any legitimate private network class addresses. It just seems that 192.168.2.1 / 2 and 192.168.2.14 / 15 are the most commonly documented pairs used for USB networking.....
I agree, they should be merged, makes it less confusing to the less experienced.

Hi Ian,
They may look good, but they need some cleaning up, and IMHO should be
merged, and the inconsistencies such as the one you mention should be
removed.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether you use .14 and .15 or .1 and .2 (or
.3 or .4 or...).
Cheers,
Dave.
