I use a Netgear wireless router/switch with my DSL modem
and this works fine for my home network using a laptop
wireless. The range is not as far as I would like but it
works well within the parameters.
Once you install this router you will have the ability to
configure it almost anyway that you would like. There is
an option for static IP addresses as well but I have never
tried it.
