Huh, I dunno. I am used to Moto Surfboards, they all seem to use 192.168.100.1 Actually, I think that might be semi-standard, at least try it. If it has snmp, you could look for that with, say, nmap (assuming it is enabled) http://serverfault.com/questions/415521/how-to-find-all-the-snmp-enabled-devices-in-my-network Cheers, Kelly Clowers -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
