Is it possible to give my Hermes a static IP?

[trapper]

I connect to a WiFi network where each component has a static IP, the problem being that my Hermes will take the earliest free IP address that it can find causing the PC which has that IP address to start spouting errors?

How can I remedy this?

If you have access to the router or buzz the (lousy ;)) administrator, configure the DHCP to a range that noone has a static IP in (for example x.x.x.250 and up)

After playing around with the router I think that I might have struck gold. Thanks for the speedy reply. I'll post an update in a day or two. :D

You can set fixed IP addresses on the device as follows:

Start>Settings>connections>Network cards>network adapters (tab)

Here you can then tap each type of connection on the list and choose either server assigned address or enter a specific address.
