Changing IP Address

Hi there,

I have been using my Android phone as a remote for XBMC on my computer. I am planning to move over to a nettop once I receive it. One of the biggest problems I faced with the remote app was that the IP address I had to use constantly changes from XXX.XXX.1.1 to XXX.XXX.1.3 and so on.

I know this is the computer's IP address changing and not the remote's.

What I would like to know is, is there a way to keep the IP address constant on the computer? I would like to turn on the nettop and be able to use the remote right away instead of having to figure out its IP address first.

Thanks
