just look up your DHCP settings and it should tell you the starting and ending IP addresses it will auto dish out. (might be on the LAN tab?) Just pick an IP outside that range, like if it runs from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.100, set it to like 101, or 150 doesn't really matter. Then change the IP address on your console.

Ye mine goes from .2 to .244 or something So I set my router as a fixed ip?

Your router is your network gateway, and will have a static IP already on the LAN side. Based on what you're telling us it's probably 192.168.0.1 or something similar, and DHCP is set up to hand out 192.168.0.2 - 244 (or something similar). He's talking about assigning a static ip to your console as well. If what you're telling us is correct, you could reserve .245 for your console, or actually anything that's excluded from DHCP, which would be anything from .245 - .254. Not that you'll ever need to lease 243 addresses, but it's always best practice not to manually assign an ip address to a system that could potentially also be assigned by DHCP. Hope that helps!

I feel like i'm being punked here

Lol sorry but I don't know anything about networks and stuff lol

What make and model of router do you have?

A nice black coloured one with some flashy lights and cables coming out of it
