One router, 2 machines, to OS, 2 different ext. IP's?

I even don't dare to ask for a hint, but as I am looking for clues may someone can help me, though reading me bsd handbook. It is about one machine running as media play studio with a debian distro and one machine running bsd 10.2 connected to one router.
By booting first the debian machine it gets connected properly to the net, no changes at all in no instance, nor the network manager neither the resolf.conf. The odd normal provider is giving me via dhcp an address. Looking it up, ifconfig e.g. yep, there it is.
Booting up the bsd machine at the same time or afterwards, this very machine doesen't seem to connect to anything.
My humble question is, who is in command now? The router with it pre-configured installation or the machine thats booting first. Second question is, how to have through the same router two different external IP's?
I would like to connect on the bsd-machine to another server, doing so in the resolv.conf, on the very same router. If someone has an idea this would help me a lot, thanks in advance.

RPC.BOOTPARAMD(8)					    BSD System Manager's Manual 					 RPC.BOOTPARAMD(8)

NAME
bootparamd, rpc.bootparamd -- boot parameter server SYNOPSIS
bootparamd [-ds] [-i interface] [-r router] [-f file] DESCRIPTION
bootparamd is a server process that provides information to diskless clients necessary for booting. It consults the file ``/etc/bootparams''. It should normally be started from ``/etc/rc''. This version will allow the use of aliases on the hostname in the ``/etc/bootparams'' file. The hostname returned in response to the booting client's whoami request will be the name that appears in the config file, not the canonical name. In this way you can keep the answer short enough so that machines that cannot handle long hostnames won't fail during boot. While parsing, if a line containing just ``+'' is found, and the YP subsystem is active, the YP map bootparams will be searched immediately. OPTIONS
-d Display the debugging information. The daemon does not fork in this case. -i interface Specify the interface to become the default router. bootparamd picks the first IPv4 address it finds on the system by default. With -i, you can control which interface to be used to obtain the default router address. -r overrides -i. -s Log the debugging information with syslog(3). -r Set the default router (a hostname or IP-address). This defaults to the machine running the server. -f Specify the file to use as boot parameter file instead of ``/etc/bootparams''. FILES

You may find the syslog messages too verbose. It's not clear if the non-canonical hack mentioned above is a good idea. BSD
