Talk:Default gateway

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Maybe a major cleanup of this article would make it a good stand-alone article but it should probably be a section in the main gateway article. Rsduhamel 19:37, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, i think so too! Michele

As somebody who came here specifically to find out what a "default gateway" was (my router, apparently :)), I must respectfully disagree.

Add: in homes with a wireless router the default gateway is the wireless router. ( I think this is correct. Bill)

Being a network student, we have been taught to only used default gateway, so i would have to disagree here i'm afraid Darren.

Same here Daren, I'm a networking student and i came here learn exactly what was listed on this page. No need to clutter it up with any more information Nexeh

I'm a network professional, and i agree with the students. No need to make things complicated :)

Uh, it's complicated already... I need to know how to change a default gateway from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.2.1 without completely killing my Internet access, I came here, and... Only understood about three words in the article. I understand that it's a node, but... that's not helpful. And the Usage and Examples sections were overly complex. 0_o 71.179.34.80 02:07, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Since WP is not a how-to guide, I'm afraid you're not finding the information you want because you're looking in the wrong place. You won't find step-by-step instructions here. -- Mikeblas 03:00, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
