• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Is there any legitimate reason to have a gateway address away from the 'standard' x.x.x.1? Pros/Cons to putting it in the middle or upper end of the range?
 
I put it on .254 most of the time. No reason just personal preference.

I prefer .1 myself.

But yea, I have seen gateways all over the place in the /24 no real pros or cons to where you put it, just so long as it makes sense to you.
 
Just pick one and stick to it. I have a customer whose VLANs vary wildly between .1 and .254. Extremely annoying.
