You see 192.168.xxx.xxx as home networks and corporate networks, it is a Class C designed for that as it will NOT route on the Internet.
As for the 0 you could have 192.168.0.1, but will not see 192.168.0.0 as 0 and 255 are your broadcast addresses. So in a home network BEHIND a firewall or Internet Connection Sharing device the USUABLE addresses for your machines would be: 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.254. hth -Scott On Fri, 8 Mar 2002, DL Neil wrote: > LaserJetter, > > > Is 192.168.0.2 a valid IP address?
