Hi, everyone I have a question about the airport express. It is so that I live in a boarding school, and sometimes we play Dota. We play over Lan since everyone is one the same network, and all internet traffic goes threw the schools server or something. Now my question is if I would get a airport express would I be able to use the same ip? Like the airport just makes it wireless but I get the same ip? Im talking about Lan ip of course. Like if i'm connected threw wire I have the ip 198.X.X.X.X and if i would connect threw a airport express would my ip be like 10.X.X.X.X or would it be 198.X.X.X.X??

Yes, you can set it up that way if you want. You could also set it up to use NAT so that all the wireless clients have the same IP on the LAN. It can do either.
