HiThere are two kinds of IP addresses.1. Internet external. - It provides to you by your ISP and it cannot be used as a duplicate.2. Local Private IP, usually it is provided by your Wireless Router and it looks like 198.168.x.xMillions of people probably have locally the same address like 192.168.1.1It is not a problem since private addresses cannot go over the Internet.However, I cannot give you s definite answer unless you describe exactly the network Devices and how they are working together.People can log to a your Wireless Router and obtain a free (not duplicate) local IP if the Wireless connection is not properly secured.Wireless Security - http://www.ezlan.net/Wireless_Security.html Jack-MVP Windows Networking.
