Raw message 

Hi All,

@dave and I have set up a Grase hotspot for a convention center and it's 
working great, except that we've run out of IP Addresses and the kids can't 
get to Facebook and Intagram (what a shame).

Below are the settings we're using -

LAN IP Address - 172.16.8.1
LAN Network Mask - 255.255.248.0

Comment from the page - "DHCP range and network address will be calculated 
from this and the LAN IP Address."

DHCP Start - 2
DHCP End - 254

Notes from this post indicate that you can multiply 254 to get your 
supernet - is this correct? Post -> http://www.coova.org/node/1865

This is the subnet we are using at the moment -> 
http://jodies.de/ipcalc?host=172.16.8.0&mask1=21&mask2= so I am assuming 
DHCP End would be 2046

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Michael
