As a footnote to Tim's last post, many routers allow one to reserve an IP address within the DHCP address pool.
In his example above, such an address might be, say, 192.168.1.40. While this will work most of the time on a home network it leaves the door open for unexpected network behavior. See, for example,
static mappings inside DHCP pools
for an explanation.
