Re: CIDR addressing question.

I couldnt find the cheat sheet, but if it's like all the other CIDR helpers out there it won't answer my question:

Total MT beginner....

The last time I tried to start setting up a 750 I gave up because I couldnt even work out how to set the ip of the board! Is there a simple idiot's guide anywhere that will get me going? (can one even set the board to a static ip for access?)

Thanks!
