I literally referenced the RFC *about* private networks, and the 3
subnets. What are you not getting?

Because you seemed to miss the point of these address ranges being non-routable for a very specific reason.

Mark,
Why would I do a search for the RFC I specifically mentioned, or the 3
routable networks I mentioned in my previous email?
If I mentioned all 3 (AND the RFC that created them), I suspect that
means I'm pretty well aware of them, no?

Jeff,
There have been, historically, three non-routable IP address ranges of different sizes that were setup expressly for the purpose of filling the need for an IP address range, initially, for companies to use for their internal networks. Do a network search for non-routable IP addresses to get the full info so I don't have to repeat it here.

I'm going to have to disagree with you on 10.x.x.x being a historical
anomaly OR being harder to use. it's just a /8 network in RFC1918.
There is nothing "special" about it.
If you understand classful OR cidr routing, 10.0.0.0/8 is just as
easy as 192.168.0.0/16
(As an aside, it always make me chuckle when people completely forget
that 172.16.0.0/12 exists in the same RFC)

the 10.x.x.x network is a special non-routable network that is used by
hundreds of businesses around the world. Your home router will not pass
any IP traffic to any addresses there so it makes the PiGate in it's own
little IP world.
192.xxx.xxx.xxx is doable on the home router.
10.x.x.x is a bit of an historical anomaly, but these days it is a group
of addresses that can be used on a BIG local network.
your 192.x.x.x is likewise set aside as a local network. when you want
to talk to a machine outside your network, your router does some
translation to use the IP address that your external internet provider
allows your router to use.
many historical decisions mean that the 10 network is "harder" or at
least more complex to use than the 192 network.
