Re: [Home Network] Motorola 2210-02-1022 LAN setup

You may be better off not using any dhcp clients......
as you have seen the 2210 dhcp server will give the 192.168.1.64 address to every dhcp client that requests a address
I ended up configuring static IPs on my work machines and left my girlfriend's laptop alone to do its DHCP thing. Since she doesn't always connect from here anyway, that was really the only choice.

Speaking of spare modems there are today several "new in box" 2210's on ebay going for cheap. Might be a safe bet as long as model and serial number are verified and guaranteed.

I agree with all that you have posted except there is no reason to only consider another motorola 2210, most any dsl modem can be configured to work with your dsl

You have no reason to rush a purchase. Take your time do some research and make a informed decision
