Read all of the instructions on the links I gave you..

When you tried to set up a static IP did you go to Start then choose Run and type command into the box. And once the DOS prompt opened did you type ipconfig /all It is important that you put a space between the ipconfig and the forward slash /. It should have shown a ip address like 10.0.0.100 or something like that. The ip address needs to go into the box where it says use the following ip address.

I am not sure what router you have for sure and it sure would help if I did. Look all over the router and see if you can find a model number.
Okay, to your first part please see my screen shot of the MS DOS Prompt (the end of the numbers I've whitened)

For the second part please see the picture I've taken with my webcam.
But to be honest, I start doubting that the piece connected to my computer is a router at all, since all pictures I've seen so far have quite a different appearance.
However, what I can see/get as information about this part is

KingCom Conexant AccessRunner USB ADSL WAN Model K505

And if there weren't the information (see again the picture of 'Network connection screen shot" ) that it is Firewalled, I'd hardly believe that such a little thing could have a firewall.
But as I said, sometimes I feel Like Don Quichot fighting the windmills of La Mancha when it comes to computers. So, please don't bash me if it turns out that my suspiciousness was reasonable.....
