(Solved) Setting a Static IP

[f1vefour]

You have a fairly negative attitude about receiving help, perhaps you should try another distribution. XBian is beta level software, you can't expect everything to always just work.

If you could figure it out on your own then why ask for help? You are capable of adding a static IP address through xbian-config, since it isn't working for you I was offering a workaround until a real solution could be found.
