I can make the IP address on my device static 2 ways.  1 way is to do some
thing in Windows and or Linux, this is what I have done on 3 devices so far.  

The other way I can do it is through my router and assign an IP address to a
device there.... The area in the router where I do this shows all the devices
with their mac addresses... There is currently ~ 20  something devices and I
didn't want to test each one to see what one was the OS/2 machine


I thought I could ask a simple question and get a simple answer... I guess
not.
