[wplug] setting up static ip in linux classically?

Tue Apr 21 09:44:15 EDT 2009

To anyone interested in a router, either wired or wireless. I have a Linksys 4 port wireless router and a Dlink Wireless router with a desktop wireless card. 

Let me know if anyone is interested by calling not emailing at this number 412-361-7826.

Yours truly
Stanley Slomberg
