I'm getting out of my scope here, but from what I have seen, many
routers now offer the feature of being able to map MAC addresses
to specific IP addresses so that individual nodes are given the
same IP addresses each time they connect. And there is an
interface that is provide by the router itself to do that mapping.
Since I am due for a new router before long, I'm guessing, I would
prefer to find a router that provided it directly.
Hope I've been a little clearer.
thanks
