[QUOTE="Small giraffe, post: 181406, member: 10580"] Hi all, Why or how can I stop my mac from changing IP addresses? My mac has a printer attached which is shared by 2 other PC's in our house. Some days my mac has a different IP address and I have to keep configuring the printers on the two pcs. This causes some of the software to crash on the pcs and I have to re-install them. Our house is all networked and as I've said there are 2 other PC's on it. Can anyone advise how my mac can keep the same IP address everytime its switched on? I've tried locking the little lock - but other than that I don't know much about networking so don't really want to bugger around with the settings. Ta much [/QUOTE]
