i dont believe static routing is what you want if you are simply trying to change your local IP to a static IP.....

I'm pretty sure this is all done within your OS....read my above post for instructions.

Yeah, thats correct :)

@rumble.. No, you need to do it on the DHCP server. Example: If you set yourself to 192.168.1.100 within XP, turn off your computer.. Your sister boots up, gets 192.168.1.100, and then you reboot, you will STILL get 192.168.1.101, you will not get 192.168.1.100 because it is taken.

I just tried setting myself as 100 in the network setting rumble said and I can't even connect to the Internet. I tried ipconfig /renew it says

The operation failed as no adapter is in the state permissible for this operation.

For hellbender, what do i fill in so im 100 and my sis is 101? I just shut down her comp lol.

hmmm i understand..... i just didnt think static routing was what he was looking for. evidently i'm wrong again. im not trying to steer anyone in the wrong direction. . :huh:

hope it all gets figured out. i'm hitting the sack.

ehm.. Good question. My netgear one is self-explanatory, but Im not sure about yours.

here's what I think: If you click on "Show Routing Table" it should show you a table with info on all connected devices (like my attached picture). Hopefully, you will have a button next to each that will let you auto-input all the relevant information into the form (like my attached picture).

If there isnt, then I'm not sure since I'm not familiar with Linksys. I would suggest you play around with it a bit until someone more knowledgable comes around.

Its time for me to hit the sack as well.. Wait around a few hours, I'm sure someone with a Linksys will help you out ;) You can post a new topic or something tomorrow if you dont get any answers...

    • Chrome is now faster than ever and Google explains how it did it by Sayan Sen Back in June last year, Google touted some great performance improvements for Chrome and shared a blog post explaining in detail how it managed to achieve them. Today, almost exactly a year later, the search giant is back again with another such post as it continues to make performance gains in its Chromium browser. Interestingly, Google is not the only one to make such claims in recent times. Microsoft also highlighted recently how Edge was getting significantly faster. Both Microsoft and Google have cited the Speedometer 3.0 benchmark to test. We recently measured browsing performance during our T-Force DDR5-7200 RAM review, also using Speedometer 3.0. In its blog post, Google says that the development team made significant improvements to memory management and caching. This includes some redesigning effort of the memory layouts for many internal data structures used in components such as DOM, CSS, layout, and painting. Google says that Blink, the rendering engine in Chromium, now "avoids a lot of useless churn" so as to make better use of the CPU caches. In the areas where memory handling previously relied on garbage collection in Oilpan, like the DOM (document object model), the team has expanded that by shifting from using malloc (memory allocation function) to Oilpan entirely. For those wondering, Olipan is the garbage collector in Blink. Some of the memory management and caching improvements Google made are fundamental to good code optimization. If you recall, recently, a senior Microsoft engineer also pointed out many of these issues in apps that slow Windows down. There are also improvements in handling strings within the renderer; the hashing method was updated to rapidhash, which is said to improve performance. For when rendering tasks become inherently expensive, such as computing CSS styles for various elements, Google adds that caching techniques have been enhanced to achieve higher cache hits and fewer misses.
    • Laptop users, this appears to be single-sided so it should fit even in cases with thin slots.
    • Apple wouldn't be what it is today without China either...
