If by "friend" you mean "enemy", then yes, computers are our "friends".

How do I do that? I think I'm close on making the static IP thing work, but I can't figure out what IP I'm supposed to be.

heh, thats the fun part. Pick something thats not currently being used.

How do you know whats being used? Try assigning your IP to a certain address. If it works for you, its not being used (except now by you). If it doesn't work for you, it is currently being used by someone else.

Just start pinging addresses. What ever address that doesn't respond, you use.

Careful with assigning random IP addresses. If they are used by something important, you'll cause network meltdown.
