prevent clients from releasing the routers ip

section31 · 09-05-2005, 12:34 AM

I have a couple of machines hooked up to a router thats connected to my cable modem for internet access. If you goto network connections you will see an icon called "internet connection/gateway". How do I disable that, because if lets say my room mate were to right click on it and click disable, it will force my router to release its ip. Here is a screenshot of what it looks like.

don't know if this should be deleted or not...but I figured it out.

I just disabled UPNP (Universal Plug and Play) from my router and it removed that from all client machines.

Glad to see you solved it.. and posted the decision. Who knows - someone may need an answer for this.

Cheers
