Suppose that you purchase a wireless router and connect it to your cable modem. Also, suppose that your ISP dynamically assigns your connected device (your wireless router) one IP address. Also suppose that you have six PCs at home that use 802.11 to wirelessly connect to your wireless router. How are IP addresses assigned to the six PCs? Does your wireless router use NAT? Why or why not?

    The six PCs are assigned private IP addresses via Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

    Yes, the wireless router uses Network Address Translation. (NAT)

    Explanation:

    Network Address Translation. (NAT) allows a private unregistered network to connect to the internet using one IP address. It is the role of DHCP to assign the private IP addresses to all 6 PCs in the wireless LAN. NAT allows communication between these two different networks by translating the private IP address into a registered public IP address for internet access.
