in the end it accomplishes the same thing. that is assuming that your settings don't get wiped out by an update pushed to the router by the cable company.
you could reserve the address, and set a static address. I would do this towards the end of the dhcp pool assuming the router hands out the lower numbers first.
How can I set a static within the DHCP range? From what I can tell the router is handing out IP's starting at the lowest number.
