i use a wireless modem/router to connect to the internet. the router assign dynamic ip addresses to several computers. my questions are

1. what's the relationship between ip address and access point?

2. my router has a function of "reserve" dynamic ip addresses and turn them into "static ip addresses". does turning an ip address of computer on the network into a static one priortize the internet connection of that paticular computer over other computers that have dynamic ip addresses?

thank you in advance.

I am trying to do some work for this company and I can't figure out what font was used in their logo. They don't know either, so I'm hoping somebody out there and just look at it and tell. I've tried all the most popular fonts and none of them match. Thanks.

I'm going crazy! I've searched the java sites, and ran google searches, but can't figure out how to format a normal double variable to display just the first two decimals. I can get it to work with currency, but can't figure out how to do it normally. Help me please! I'm using an IDE Eclipse to write my program.

I got win server 2k3 sm biz edition premium. I need to add another pc. Its been half a year since I did it to all the clients on the initial install.. but I forgot all the dang steps... I vaguely remember what to do on the PC side. On the server, I added the user and generated their info. The PC that isnt on the domain yet cant even get an IP from the DHCP server, and so no internet either. It will send packets, but not recieve.

What do I do? I need to get the connection, so that I can query the server to set up the client correctly with the new permissions. If that never happens, it will just be a freefloater.

This PC will be the 10th client, and I have 10 licenses.
