Devices on the Network
Jason answered an interesting question, How many devices on your house network have an IP address? I didn’t think I had so many until I started making a list…
1: My laptop (Firefly).
2: My desktop (Absinthe).
3: Server One (HDP).
4: Server Two (Kestrel).
5: Printer (called Happy Dead Printer!).
6: My phone (when connected to WiFi).
7: Roommate’s laptop (Jezebel).
8: Roommate’s desktop (?).
9: Roommate’s scanning station (?).
10: Neighbor’s laptop (Mookee).
11: WiFi Hub One.
12: WiFi Hub Two.
I *think* that’s it. Without checking I’ll leave it at that. It’s a good thing I don’t have any game consoles!

Do dynamically assigned IP addresses count?

Of course they do! Otherwise I’d only have three devices on my network.

Oh, okay. Then I have one device on my network, assuming an intermittent dial-up connection counts as a network.
I don’t think I really have a network at all. :(
