I have 4 computers connected to the wireless network, the ip addresses are assigned automatically on each computer.
I just wanted to know how can i get to know the other computers ip addresses? without moving to each machine and check their ip addresses physically.

Re: IP ADDRESSING ON WLAN
Well depending on your router you may be able to find a function that lists all the hosts currently using DHCP.
I have a Linksys WRT54G and it has this functionality. Or you could get some kind of network enumerator that attempts to ping all the hosts in your subnet.

Re: IP ADDRESSING ON WLAN
as mentioned, use a port/ip scanner (e.g. nmap). router assigns the IP in ascending order, starting with 192.168.1.100 by default. if u want each pc always to have the same (sub) IP no mater what, some new router have an option to reserve an IP for a particular MAC (dedicated DHCP table), that way u bind mac to ip.

Re: IP ADDRESSING ON WLAN
nmap -sP then what ever your subnet is
eg nmap -sP 192.168.0.* for all ip's on 192.168.0.*'s subnet, to find out what subnet you're on just find you're own internal ip
simple

Re: IP ADDRESSING ON WLAN
As said before, port scan or check the log of active DHCP leases.
