That's a very good point to bring up. I use static IP assignments for my wireless connection as well as the wired, since my router firmware allows for static IP assignments based on the MAC address. Without 'steady' IP addresses, you will have problems with VNC'ing IN to that computer without a doubt.

For instance it has IP address 192.168.8.101 when connected by cable, but it might have a different one when connecting via wireless. This is something that's tripped me up before now.
