Hi Eric,

> I changed the internal subnet and it looks like everything changes correctly but what happens is the interface comes up and I can ping it. I see IPv6 traffic coming from it (I believe) but there's no IPv4 response .I should see if I can set up my Linux machine as IPv6 and see if I can access any of the services there. IPv6 is new terrain for me so helpful pointers would be quite welcome.

This is mostly to isolate various kinds of traffic so the slowest (2.4GHz abg) doesn't interfere with 5GHz wireless or 100mbps Ethernet. There's more info at:

I would like to be able to change the entire network configuration for different subnet sizes etc. but in order to do that, I will need a much better understanding of what the network architecture is supposed to be.
