My QUESTION: I connect two machines at home to a wireless router, with my IP number a local one, assigned by the router. Is it reasonable to set this up so my main home machine has the same IP number always, so I can set up other machines to print over the local wireless net?

Yes, of course you can. You can either set it up with a static address in /etc/conf.d/net with something like:

config_ath0=( "192.168.1.2" )
routes_ath0=( "default via 192.168.1.1" )

substituting whatever is appropriate for your interface and addresses or you can configure the router to always give the same IP address to the MAC address of your main machine.

Be lucky,

Neil
