By default it's set to DHCP and does aquire an IP address when plugged into my router. However, -Assignment is greyed out so I can't change from DHCP.
Any ideas?

I just came across this myself. I changed them by ssh'ing in (you could just "exit" and get to a command prompt that way) and editing the /etc/network/interfaces file. There are both dhcp and static entries there, just comment out the dchp line and uncomment the static lines. Then you can change the numbers to whatever you need.
Hope this helps!

Good to know it's not just me!
Shouldn't we report this as a bug or something?
Hmm, you make it sound easy changing the settings but I'm a complete novice with Linux.
I'll give it a shot anyway...
Thanks again.

IIRC they are greyed because XBMC arent run as root, and run XBMC as root is bad so we dont do it 
Anyways Im working abit on userspace networksettings and hopefully it will be finnished before 9.04, then you´ll be able to browse and setup network in XBMC as a user.
Cheers,
