[olug] Subnet mask

Got it!  So, 65-94 are the hosts and 95 is the broadcast.  Thanx for helping me get the old noodle moving.

No.  96 is outside the subnet range.  You wouldn't be able to reach it.
There is nothing magical or automatic about the default gateway.  It
could be assigned any usable address within the subnet (65 .. 94).

Googled and found this:

Says that my mask is 255.255.255.24  
Broadcast address is 205.202.101.95
Gateway address is 205.202.101.96
Does this sound right?
Thanx!

I am having a brain freeze and I cannot for the life of me figure this
out.  I have been given a range of numbers to use at my job and I cannot
figure out the subnet mask...Help!
The numbers are 205.202.101.64-205.202.101.93.  Class C address from
authority.  I know that by thinking about it, it is divided into 4
subnets, right? (30 numbers into 128 is 4 times+).  ugh.  My head hurts
today...
