2. Now reselect your network and enter your password
3. Click on "Show Advanced Options" and select "IP Settings", then choose "Static "instead of" DHCP "
4. The address IP : enter the IP address you want to assign to your phone. Take it from the list of available IP assigned via DHCP (check your router configuration page if you have doubts). For example, if your router is 192.168.0.1, from 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254, then you should be fine.
