Ryan,

we (Funkfeuer) use public IPs and we have a DB table which matches handed out public IPs with their respective users/devices.

No DHCP in that case.

But they have to decide what range of IPs to hand out.  How do they decide that?  Do you assign each router a range when it joins the network?  How do you decide on an IP address for a router?  Does that do DHCP with something else, or do you give them out by hand?
