RE: WAP11 Problem

I think it's for the latest firmware (which I haven't yet downloaded), but
I
prefer to have fixed IP for things like server, my CM router, the AP etc.
I will be changing the IP of the AP to match my conventions (the
aforementioned list of devices all have IP's of 192.168.1.1 -
192.168.1.100).
That way, I always know I can connect to 192.168.1.1 and know it's the main
server etc, for if/when dns & stuff get screwed up......

>Unfortunatelly, I'm using ICS, which uses it's own DHCP server, which
has
it's own scope (192.168.0.2-192.168.0.254).
>It's all hardcoded, so I cannot change the scope to include AP's
default IP
address.

That's okay, just put the AP on 192.168.0.255 or .1 then!

I would have to use proper DHCP server, but Microsoft doesn't support them
running together on the same LAN. (although, I know that it's working).

Ah, this is where a router comes in!  Or use WinProxy or similar to act as
firewall/dhcp/ICS device.
Easy to set up & get going.  Cheap too......
