Yes, I put in the MAC address of the connection when I reserved the IP 
address.  The motherboard has two connectors, and I reserved the MAC 
address of the one that I thought that I was using.  When that did not 
work, I tried the other connector to make sure.  And, I did the same 
thing with the other MAC address. Also, I deleted the reserved address 
and tried that, too.  I think that I also tried the MAC address of the 
PCI card once, but am not sure.  Been struggling with this new build for 
some time and am getting short on sleep.  (Don't know whether to add a 
smiley face or a sad face.)

Dean,
When you reserved the ip address for that machine did it require the MAC
address to associate it to? Also are you using MAC filtering? Is the MAC
address correct for the NIC of the machine in question?
