"I'm surprised that you can assign address .255. I was never able to but never thought about why. I just googled &amp;quot;ping .255&amp;quot; and got some very interesting information that I did not know. Apparently .255 is a &amp;quot;broadcast&amp;quot; address that is similar to saying &amp;quot;Is anybody out there?&amp;quot; You apparently are getting a response from &amp;quot;everyone&amp;quot; on the subnet. Very interesting reading if you do the same google search. Thanks for teaching me something today. :) John "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
