I have a new WDTV Live I want to give a static IP to as it doesn't always work through DCHP. Thing is I have no idea how to give a device a static IP!

I need to give it access to my Mac's shared folders and access to the internet. I have shared it my internet connection from the Airport to Ethernet, screenshots attached.

My WDTV is asking for:
  • IP address
  • Subnet Mask
  • Gateway
  • DNS

What settings am I supposed to give my Mac and WDTV for this to work?
Thanks for anyone's help on this.
