Currently setting up a new Win2k3 server using static IP address and that new fangles 'wireless' ;)

Scenario; user has a laptop, has a static IP assigned to the NIC which can be used at any point on site. The laptop also has a wireless card built in which also has the same IP address as the NIC assigned to it.

Is this the correct way of setting up such a laptop on a wirelss connection using static IPs? The alternative is using the WAP as a DHCP but if i'm using static IPs could this not cause conflicts?...or should i set aside a specific IP range for wireless laptops to make use of?

Ta.
