I personally would reduce my DHCP pool for starters as I'm sure you don't have 252 devices on your home network that need an IP address. :-P It's generally a good idea in my opinion to limit your DHCP pool leaving just enough breathing room for any guest devices which may need to get up on your home network from time to time. Any IP address range within your 192.168.0.2-192.168.0.254 is fine for your DHCP pool. Whatever you want. My DHCP pool only allows for 11 IP addresses, most of which are reserved for devices which don't offer the option to assign a static IP with a couple extra to spare for guests that stop by the house from time to time. Anything outside your DHCP pool is fair game as far as assigning a static IP. Keeping static IP's outside your DHCP pool prevents the possibility of an IP address conflict obviously.
