Could be much more. The entire 10.x.x.x range is not routable.

No, you need to leave an IP for the router. The range is usually
10.0.0.100 - 10.0.0.255. As I have only two computers, I used the addresses
that the router gave them.
You could also use the computer names.

I didn't need to specify the mask.

Trusted. You do trust your laptop don't you? Besides, that is what the
instructions state.
