Re: What NTL know....
The MAC address is a strong clue, as they are assigned in groups to makers (and then the maker assigns them within that group. avoiding any risk of identical MAC's on the same ethernet), most routers will allow you to manually set the MAC address (aka. MAC address spoofing) so that the router can present the same address as the primary PC - this makes things a lot less painful if you have to move between router and direct connection, as you should be able to do a DHCP release/renew without power cycling the box.
