Android Question changing form DHCP to Static IP?

[jamesmustain]

Hi all,
I need to put the static ip address on the device (via code). I get a db with a table with the ip address, using a query I would take the value and assign it to the device.
So Is it possible to change the "configuration mode" from DHCP to static and enter the IP?
Any help? Thanks!
