BTW what is the link to your VM forum posting?
I thought the IP address would stay the same after a SH change if you're running in modem mode, as the network will see the mac address of whatever is connected to the 'modem', must admit I've not read the whole thread so if the OP is running the SH as a router then ignore me!!
