PPP mode setup for sharing ADSL over a local network:
Keep
in mind that DHCP assigns IP's in order as they are requested, starting
with 10.0.0.2. If you want certain machines to have certain IP's, don't
use DHCP.
Because of an incompatibility between the 675's 2.0.1 DHCP server and the
Microsoft Win9x DHCP client, the DHCP server must be disabled and inside
local IP's etc. must be manually assigned. This should was fixed with
CBOS version 2.1.0a. If you have CBOS 2.1.0 of greater, simply connect
to the hub and the 675 will hand an IP out to each DHCP client.
