[QUOTE="cradom, post: 732642, member: 305283"] Setting a static IP is done on your computer, not the router. You need to set one in the range the router expects, usually 192.168.1.100-whatever. Open the Network prefs and set "Configure IPv4" to Manually. Type in an IP address (check your router docs for this). You might also need to open certain ports in the router. Check this site and look up your router for instructions: [url]http://www.portforward.com/[/url] You need to know what port/s to open for what particular application, see their web site for this.
