[BC] "Jealous" equipment

I've disabled DHCP on each and every one I get, BEFORE I plug in the net
cable

I usually run receivers at 192.168.1.151 up to 159, never had even close to
9 with Ethernet at a given station

I reserve 192.168.1.201 up as necessary for programming comps

All sat rx's go on their own switch, all programming comps on a separate
switch, 'office' machines on a third
