I'm running linux (Kubuntu 7.04) and my PC network has been work

the IP address assigned by dhcp was 192.168.2.100.

You should be able to disable the avahi-deamon and still connect
to the router. You can use dhcp or set your nic as static.

My modem/router does dhcp assignments. I chose to set my desktop as
static (192.168.1.131), dns servers are set to opendns servers
(208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220) and have no network problems.

That way if black hats crack my router, I know I will still have valid
DNS servers and my lan ip addy does not change when the router is dinked up.
