Well... not really tests, just document your settings and keep them
consistent...
if your DSL modem is doing DHCP, then leave it to do that....
typical settings
DSL Router Settings
WAN IP XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
LAN IP 192.168.1.1
DHCP pool of 192.168.1.10-25
DNS - point to external DNS of ISP(call ISP and ask what DNS addresses
they use.)
Internal PCs should have IPs of 192.168.1.10-25, subnet 255.255.255.0,
gateway 192.168.1.1, DNS could be either your 192.168.1.1, or your
external DNS provided by your ISP.... Most Routers will have 2
entries for DNS... both should be external. Your internal clients
should use 1, the routers internal address(192.168.1.1) and 2, the
external address provided by your ISP....
