I think Paul is probably right. I would change it to a static IP. You don't have to change all the IPs to static, you can just do yours. Do the following:

If your router is setup as 192.168.0.1 and it is set to give out DHCP addresses from 192.168.0.2-192.168.0.100 then set your static address somewhere OUTSIDE of that range (e.g. 192.168.0.101). This will prevent someone else from being given your IP address.
