How do I obtain a static IP address from a 3g wireles USB Modem.

Asked by spyder_024 in Xbox Video Game Console, Computer Modems, Internet Service Providers (ISP)

Tags: xbox360

Hi. I'm having a problem when trying to connect my xbox 360 to my Desktop.

Let me explane my setup:

Xbox 360 connected directly to Desktop with an ethernet cable. Not through a modem or router.
Desktop recieves internet via a 3g wirless USB Modem
Desktop runs Windows Vista Home Premium
   
My problem is that while I am able to access all of my music, video and pictures from my Desktop on my Xbox 360, I still get an "Cannot obtain an IP address from your router or modem" error.This happens when the xbox is searching for the network. Now I know that Windows Vista reconizes 3g wireless USB Modems as dail-up connection, and that all dail-up connections use a dynamic IP address. What I want to know is if theres a way to enter or add a static IP address so I can give that static IP address to my Xbox 360 so I am able to connect my xbox to my Desktop.  Also I have turned off my firewall so its not that.

Where on my desktop do I go to enter the IP, SUBNET and DNS addresses? .  Also what about the DNS number, what should that be?  Now my ISP is rejecting the new IP i entered and it is not letting me connect to the internet unless I have the settings on my Desktop set to obtain an IP address automatically. Is there a way around the dynammic IP?
