I didn't say you have to run DHCP, it just makes things alot easier. Ok I've now downloaded and read the manual to see what was so different with the Linksys. When it comes to "normal" home networking I don't really see a difference from other NAT routers. Sure it has a lot of more features but nothing that interferes with the instruction "turn on DHCP and you'll be fine".
This is what I gathered from the manual:
DHCP disabled:
DHCP enabled:
I still think DHCP enabled is the way to go.
