In the old days that would be a supernet because the 192.168.x.x
is a class C (255.255.255.0). But that no longer holds true (and
for the life of me I can't remember the dang name, something like
classless). Today that would signify that the network 192.168.0.0
covers the IP addresses 192.168.0.0 through 192.168.3.255. It is
a little odd if this is a home network.

It's not. :D

It's college.
