I don't know if this is still the case, but I remember reading something
about NetworkManager not really handling static Ip setups very well. Can you
setup for DHCP server to give you the IP you want? This is what I do with my
Netgear router. I have IPs 192.168.0.2-10 reserved for this and set the
router to recognize my MAC address and always give me IP 192.168.0.2. All
other users get 192.168.0.11 or higher.
