That is actually how I was doing it in the past but it did not seem to be working. Everytime my laptop(wireless) would lose its connection it would be assigned a different IP address although it was in the reserved list with the proper MAC address.
I think I will try and put all the computers back to DHCP like you all suggest and see if maybe I was overlooking something before.

Shoot! While I was going in to change the master CQC PC back to DHCP I noticed that the windows firewall was on. So I am going to leave it static right now and turn the firewall off to see if that help. Is anyone successfully using CQC with windows firewall? I know I've never been able to get it to work.

Magically the P4P800-E device name is now shoing up under the attached devices. I may be on to something here.

I think I have WF off on the Master Server, since it never browses the internet. WF is on everywhere else; although if you are behind a NAT box/router, it is of reduced (but not zero) value.

I run AVG Free 8.0 with Windows Firewall, and have not had any issues with either on my CQC Master Server.

It seems that turning WF off has solved the problem.
