Glad it works,
Usually, PC's will have dynamic IP's which may change when they connect to the LAN, being assigned from a DHCP pool of addresses either in the router or server.
Items such as PBX's, Printers, Scanners, CCTV etc should usually be given a static IP in the same subnet (range), these static IP's being excluded from the DHCP pool or reserved to prevent them being given out to dynamic clients. This would cause a conflict.
As yours is, you may find it gives no problems, as long as you kept clear of the DHCP range. If you only went a couple IP's different to the customers PC, you may find a second, third, fourth PC may end up conflicting with your IP, causing problems for both the PC and the PBX.
