IP addresses are assigned by DHCP servers, not by routers. DHCP servers will cache your IP address and reassign the same IP until the cache is cleared.

Do you share your IP address with other internet users in your house who use the same wireless internet 'network' as you?

Within the local network, every computer has to have a different IP address. These IP addresses have to be in the same subnet; usually this means that the first 3 bytes are the same.Within the local network, every computer has to have a different IP address.

What are the main differences between the dsl wireless router?

The different routers will normall offer the same features. The only difference in these different routers is the quality which is based by price.


If you use an adsl modem and connected to two computer is your ip same on both computers?

No, each computer must have a different IP address. The IP addresses have to be in the same subnet between themselves, and in the same subnet as the ADSL router (or modem); I won't explain subnets here, but usually having the same numbers for the first 3 parts of the IP address is enough. For example, if the ADSL router has the IP address 10.0.0.1, your computers might have addresses 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.3. If you need to add a third computer, give it the IP address 10.0.0.4If the first computer has a different IP address - and it works - replace that, instead. For example, if the computer has IP address 172.16.0.2, assign the address 172.16.0.3 to the next computer.


Which field in an IPv4 packet header will typically stay the same during its transmission?

Destination Address (I.P. ) will stay the same during transmission. But be careful! Only if it is Ip address. However if it is MAC it will change as it travels thru diferent routers with different MAC addresses to get to the destination Ip address (which does not change)!

Does every computer have a different ip address?

No, an IP address is given to each internet provider, not each computer. For example, there could be five computers hooked up to the same network in which case they'd all have the same IP address.


Why Can't the IP address 169.254.226.4 be routed on the internet?

Addresses that start with 169.254 are assigned when the computer doesn't find a DHCP server. Probably they are not routed because the network won't be unique - you might have different networks with the same address range. Different subnets have to have different address ranges.Addresses that start with 169.254 are assigned when the computer doesn't find a DHCP server.

How do you connect two computers with the same IP to another computer?

You cannot do. If you have static Ip addresses then just change one of them to a different one. I would not believe that you have two equal dynamic Ips, unless it's from different routers (dhcp servers).


Does you ip address remain the same even if you take your computer from Washington to Nigeria?

No. The internet IP address of your computer can change, even if your computer stays in the same location, because your external/internet IP address is assigned to your computer by your internet service provider (ISP). Usually internet service providers assign IPs to subscribers with a network configuration protocol called DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). This protocol picks an IP address from a pool (the IP pool) and assigns it to a subscriber. Depending on how DHCP is configured it can keep that same address assigned to that subscriber for a certain period. This period is called the lease period. When the lease of your IP address expires your computer will get a new IP, even if it stays in the same location (and thus connected to the same ISP). When you pick up your computer and move it to Nigeria, it will certainly move to a different ISP and it will certainly get a different IP address.


How do you hook up two wireless router on the same network with both routers located in different rooms?

You have to choose which router is the main one. After that you can configure second router to create "bridge" with the main one. It's better if you have both routers of the same manufacture and model. Many routers even so can be configured for "bridge" usually do not work with different models and manufactures.
