i got the info but they want me to put a subnet mask in as 255.255.255.248 but vista will not let me put that any ideas?
Now does your DSL router do DHCP? If so having that enabled and plugged into the rest of your network may/will cause problems confusing workstations of where they are connecting to. But on your machine you should be able to setup a 2nd IP address and gateway to test.
