Your network will likely be one of the following:

EvolutionX Network Setup Using a Hub/Switch:

Instructions:
1. The first step is to make sure you PC has a static  internal IP address.  Go into your NIC's TCP/IP Properties, and check off "Use  the Following IP address:".  Next, where it says IP address, enter: 192.168.0.1.  Where it says Subnet Mask, enter: 255.255.255.0.  Click on Ok, and  exit.

2. If you have loaded the EvolutionX dashboard onto your Xbox, and you want  to assign your Xbox a Static IP, go into Network, and under Static IP, enter: 192.168.0.x (where x is a number from 2 - 255).  For the Default Gateway, enter:  192.168.0.1.

3. If, however, you are using ICS or Winroute on your main PC, you already have a DHCP server, and it really isn't necessary to load the EvolutionX  dashboard onto your Xbox HDD  So in this case, the IP assigned to the Xbox by the DHCP server (on your computer) will be done automatically each time the Xbox is turned on.  In other words, the Xbox will be assigned a dynamic IP, which will be different each time the Xbox is turned on.  The only way to have a  static IP on the Xbox is to follow step 2.
