If you go to the "connected devices" page on your router, you can pretty quickly work out what the dynamic IP is for any particular session.

Or, if you use windows SSH to gain access, you will find the box just by using it's identifier: "mx"!

Once in, you can edit the /etc/network/interfaces file to set a static IP (I have not done this myself, but I am told it is straightforward).

Personally, I let it have the dynamic addressing, but reserve a particular IP on my router for the MAC address of the device. This way, my xbmc smartphone remote keeps working Smile
