Hi all,
I have a Netgear DG834 ADSL Firewall Router with 4 PC connected to it.
I have set the router to reserve IP's to certain mac addresses eg
ip's ending 2 - 5.

I have set the router to as a DHCP Server for ip's starting 2 -
ending 5 so I think in theory no one else could connect to the router
as there ar no more ip's in the pool.

The person that uses computer on ip No 3 has decided to pull out of the
network (as we all split the costs) so I want to stop him from simply
reconnecting and using the network.

I have set the firewall to block all traffic on this IP. Eg

Outbound Services
         # Enable Service Name Action LAN Users WAN Servers Log

2
Any(ALL) BLOCK always 192.168.0.3 192.168.0.3 Always
         Default Yes Any ALLOW always Any Any Never

Inbound Services
         # Enable Service Name Action LAN Server IP address WAN Users Log

2
Any(ALL) BLOCK always Any 192.168.0.3 Always
         Default Yes Any BLOCK always Any Any Never

Am I right using the same address on the WAN side... do these settings
look right??

Thanks loads,
Shay
