Assume two packets arrive at the same time at two distinct input ports of a router. Assume that there are no other packets in the router. Let's say you buy a wireless router and connect it to your cable modem. Assume that your ISP provides your connected device (that is, your wireless router) one IP address on the fly. Assume you have five computers at home that use 802.11 to connect to your wireless network. How are the five PCs' IP addresses assigned? Is NAT used by the wireless router? If so, why or why not?
