There are no longer such things as class A addresses. Net 24.0.0.0/8 has been reserved for data over cable providers. I'll bet your new address starts with 24 :) I believe the same thing has occurred with net 65.0.0.0/8 but for dsl service, though I'm not sure ... @Home has several allocations from that block. @Home does do more than just cable though. -- Nathan Norman - Staff Engineer | A good plan today is better Micromuse Inc. | than a perfect plan tomorrow. mailto:nnorman@micromuse.com | -- Patton
