Re: How do you set up a static IP address
I think what you may be talking about is a static *local* IP address which is easy to set up. If you have several computers at home connected up to the router (like I do) then each needs it's own local IP so that the traffic coming into the router knows which computer to be forwarded to.
System Preferences -> Network -> Select Local Ethernet Connection and Configure below -> Configure IPv4: Manually and then input an IP that looks like 192.168.1.xxx (where xxx is a number between 2 and 999) Subnet Mask is probably 255.255.255.0 and Router IP is probably 192.168.1.1 DNS Servers you would get from your ISP.
Hope that helps.
