Default Cannot Use a Static IP with Vista - Local Access Only

I installed Vista and my wireless networking driver. I had an immediate
Internet connection through the Linksys wireless router. Since I want to use
remote desktop, I set a static IP on the wireless network connection. When I
did that, I immediately lost my Internet connection and my connection went
to Local Access only. I've tried a number of "elementary" approaches to the
problem, but I keep coming back to Vista since the problem doesn't seem to
exist on my XP box.

Any suggestions on how to resolve this? Thanks.
