You just need to have multiple static ip addresses provisioned to you by your ISP and then have a router whose software is capable of handling it. Every windows XP computer can have multiple static ip addresses, and I use a version of Linux called coyote Linux for my router, which supports three static ip addresses and even allows port forwarding based on which public ip address the traffic is coming in on. I'm pretty sure most basic routers sold in stores don't have this capability and you would need a pricier, more advanced model. But Coyote Linux is free. Just fyi.
router that accepts all internet traffic for a company's LAN
no
On a computer, I set the IP address to a static IP of 192.168.11.2 so that I can access it whenever I need to. I run openSUSE and have a router attached to my DSL modem.
router(config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.1.1
Try to assign static IP addresses to servers?
Was your router installed and configured by your Internet service provider ? Does it act as DHCP server ? Meaning does it assign IP addresses to connecting clients ? Is the network card on your Computer working ? In command mode (Microsoft windows) if you type ipconfig /all what do you get ? Is your computer network card configured to automatically obtain an IP address or does it have a static address ? If your network card has a static IP address, you should check that it is in the range of the DHCP server and that they both have the same subnet mask. You should change selection in propeties to automatically obtain IP address. Check then if you see your router. Afterwards you can reassign a static IP address in the appropriate range or change the range on the router. Does your computer see other wifi in range but not yours ? Can you connect to your router from another computer ? In that case, you should compare the settings of the network connection of both PC's. And settings of the cards (is the radio option on ?) Is the location of the router adequate to avoid obstruction or interferences ? Both reduce the range of wifi network equipment. Obstructions are walls, furnitures ... Interferences are microwaves, cordless phones ...
The router will perform a recursive lookup
typically the router that you are using will take 192.168.1.1. It is a usable address, but it is already taken, so the first IP you can use for a device on that network would be 192.168.1.2 the last usable IP is 192.168.1.254 assuming you are using a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 Keep in mind that if you are giving devices static IP addresses, it is recommended to reserve the IP address in the DHCP server (typically the router in a home network) or assign it outside of the scope of ip addresses. You can do this through the configuration of the router, typically by entering the router's ip into your browser. (make sure you set your wireless settings to wpa otherwise you will have little or no security)
sure why not. are you going to do a double NAT? do you have multiple static IP addresses from your ISP? or are you just going to static IP one of them and turn DHCP off on that one, and just use it as a switch?
"IP configuration" determines how your computers IP address is assigned. A "static address" is what would be set if you want to manually assign your computer an IP. A "dynamic IP address" would use DHCP or some other form of this to automatically assign your device an IP without an user intervention and usually should be set unless you need to make you IP set to something very specific.
