In order to have internet, a friend had to manually change the IP adress of my computer, but every time i log in this window pops:

After that i have no internet, and it takes a long before I do, sometimes i can fix it by turning on and off the AirPort or my computer, but it only lasts for some minutes before it goes again...any ideas why this my happen?
Also, my network seems to be working fine, it's on and fully connected, only that i do not have internet..
this is the manual IP adress, in case there's something wrong.

Thanks a lot! I really have no idea about these matters...
 
Change your IP address or set it to DHCP or change the IP address of that other device or set the IP address of that other device to DHCP or set both devices to DHCP.

Thanks a lot for your reply, the thing is, i don't know which other device it is, i'm not in my house and it's lots of them, so I guess i'll change mine, but...how can I set it to DHCP? Or if I change the IP adress what should I set it to be?

Do the steps described in the link I provided and instead of MANUALLY select DHCP. Or change the ".137" to .194 or any other two to three digit number.
