Though it should work out of the box, have you tried assigning static IPs to your computers?
Here's what I did. When into my router settings (192.168.1.1) then to LAN Setup and under the Use Router as DHCP Server I changed the Starting IP Addresses to 192.168.1.100 and left the Ending IP Addresses at 192.168.1.254.
I did this just so the router doesn't try to assign the IP addresses 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.99 to any wireless devices that might connect to the network. Now you can use these IP addresses to assign Static IP addresses to your computers and Xbox.
