sorry didnt read your posts properly.

so I am guessing when a dhcp client connects to a network it scans for dhcp servers, as long as only one dhcp server exists there is no problem. The router which has dhcp disabled I then manually configure the machines that use it.

I am also guessing I can even connect a device to the router that wont be its gateway? so as to avoid unneeded long runs of cable.
