Hello,
I have a linksys router with dd-wrt micro and I would like to know if it is possible to create a dhcp setting that gives a static ip to certain mac addresses but with different gateway address than the rest.

My router has a WAN which is connected to a cable ISP which is the default gateway for all the computers. DHCP is configured as 172.16.51.0/24 and gateway 172.16.51.1. Then I have a Linux desktop server connected to one of the lan ports in the router. This linux server has a second card with internet access and is already configured to share the connection. The linux server has an ip of 172.16.51.2 on the LAN side. I got two mac addresses in my network that I want to configure so that it still gets the same subnet ip but gets 172.16.51.2 as gateway instead of 172.16.51.1.

Any ideas?

well nevermind, I found a solution by reading the DNSmasq manpage.

Here is the solution for anyone else who wants to do it:

dhcp-range=net:2,172.16.51.0,255.255.255.0,static
dhcp-option=net:2,3,172.16.51.2

then use dhcp-host=<hwaddr>, net:2, <ipaddr>

this works even if it is in the same subnet of my main dhcp settings probably because I have set the secondary dhcp as static which means it won't be used as dynamic dhcp.
