Re: We thought of this said by phattieg:You know, someone around my house tried to do that, they even turned off DHCP and DNS, but I just made my own IP, and used Verizon's DNS servers because they were easy to remember. Which is why you set up your DHCP server to set up aliased IPs for the address range it manages, then unalias them as it allocates them. That way, even if someone does decide to be smart and snare an IP, they've got competing devices on the network with the same address. Makes usage practically impossible.
