The WRT54G stock firmware does not support this.

However, the Tomato and DD-WRT firmware for the WRT54G do allow you to assign the same IP to a device based on MAC address.

For Tomato, it's under Static DHCP.
How safe is this?
Any chance I will "brick" my router?
Will I lose any features?
DD-WRT can turn your $40-$50 router into a router that would normally cost $150+.

I have a WRT54GL that I bought specifically to put the regular sized DD-WRT on it. It does what you are looking for, plus, oh, so much more!

I HIGHLY recommend it!

And as was already mentioned, there is a slight risk in bricking the router, but its very very slight. If you follow the directions on the DD-WRT site, you will be fine.
