If I don't mistake, router always allow you to use a static IP 
address... if you select the IP address in the authorized range.

First you need to know a valid IP address not actually used (IP_ADDRESS) 
and the net mask of the network (NETMASK), the network interface of your 
PC (ETH0) and the IP of the router (IP_ROUTER).

I suppose that you are able to know the values of IP_ADDRESS, NETMASK, 
ETH0, and IP_ROUTER

Normally this is the basic step to have a network working:

# ifconfig ETH0 IP_ADDRESS netmask NETMASK
# route add default gw IP_ROUTER

You can also see if the DNS have been setted:
$ cat /etc/resolv.conf

if it is blank you must insert one-two valid entry, for the example the 
following (opendns)

nameserver 208.67.222.222
nameserver 208.67.220.220

When you have correctly activated your network, then you can address all 
other issue you have.

I think it is better to ask to the user mailing list...
