Yes, of course you can. You can either set it up with a static address
in /etc/conf.d/net with something like:
config_ath0=( "192.168.1.2" )
routes_ath0=( "default via 192.168.1.1" )
substituting whatever is appropriate for your interface and addresses or
you can configure the router to always give the same IP address to the
MAC address of your main machine.
Be lucky,
Neil
