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.

NAME
defaultrouter - configuration file for default router(s) SYNOPSIS
/etc/defaultrouter DESCRIPTION
The /etc/defaultrouter file specifies a IPv4 host's default router(s). The format of the file is as follows: IP_address ... The /etc/defaultrouter file can contain the IP addresses or hostnames of one or more default routers, with each entry on its own line. If you use hostnames, each hostname must also be listed in the local /etc/hosts file, because no name services are running at the time that defaultrouter is read. Lines beginning with the ``#'' character are treated as comments. The default routes listed in this file replace those added by the kernel during diskless booting. An empty /etc/defaultrouter file will cause the default route added by the kernel to be deleted. Use of a default route, whether received from a DHCP server or from /etc/defaultrouter, prevents a machine from acting as an IPv4 router. You can use routeadm(1M) to override this behavior. FILES
