You don't need to turn off DHCP at the router to assign yourself a static IP address.

Just set up your comp with a compatible IP, such as 192.168.1.4 ,
and your router will still recognize it with DHCP on, as it would assign a similar address anyway.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

when i did this i had to manually put in the DNS servers or i couldn't get to the internet...is that normal?
