I am not assigning different IP-addresses, I use DHCP reservation,
irrespective of the OS, I always get the same IP-address for a given MAC
address. I have done this reservation for all my devices both on ethernet
and wifi network.

I did this so I know when my network is compromised.

This one goes to the Windows 8 mystery box.
