cant configure my own network, need help!!

Maybe I am an idiot but I am having one hell of a time trying to get my
wireless network to do what I want it to. I have a wireless actiontec router
and a d-link dwl G820. I have two computers on this network. The dlink wants
me to have a static IP but I do not know how to create a static IP and still
have the rest of the network work. Can anyone help me with my technical
cunundrum?

Thanks

What do you mean by "dlink wants me to have a static IP?" Why do you think
that? What is the actual problem?

The actiontec modem not router (sorry) automatically retrieves a ip address
isntead of having a static IP. The dlink set up wants a static IP. I hope
that is enough clarification

Is your actiontec the combined DSL modem/wireless router unit? Please give
the exact model number.
It's the dwl G820 that need a static address, not the modem. It looks like
the default address in the dwl G820 is in the same default subnet as the
actionec, but I'm guessing at the models. Please answer the above and I can
be more specific.
