Problems with WiFi on I Pad

I have a business that I run through my home. I have a cyberguard router with a static IP and a wireless access point using a static IP configuration. I recently purchased an I Pad and I am unable to connect to WiFi. My I Pad sees the network and allowed me to join but I still cannot get internet. I changed the settings on the I Pad to match the wireless router and input my password with no problems. I saw a response from someone on 5/29/10 regarding a similar issue with a need to change the I Pad's IP to 10.0.0.1. does anyone no if kilohurtz was speaking about the static config under settings or does the I Pad have a separate IP Address somewhere else? Any help please!!!! Thanks in advance! I'm new to the I Pad so I could use a step by step approach.
