Hi.

Just go into System Prefs.

Then Network

Then, from the "Show" dropdown, select the interface you want to configure (ie, airport, onboard)

Then, for Configure IPv4, change it to Manually.

Put in IP, Subnet, and the gateway would go in the 'Router' field.

Add the DNS and you should be good to go.
