You probably said yes to dynamically obtaining an ip.

/etc/network/interfaces

You probably have a line similar to :

    iface eth0 inet dhcp

that you will want to change to something similar to 

    iface eth0 inet static
           address 192.168.0.6
           netmask 255.255.255.0
           gateway 192.168.0.1
