You shouldn't be setting a static address in a router, especially not for the WAN side. That should be allocated dynamically by the Cable Modem. I'd suggest a restore to factory settings on the router and work from there. Remebre the modem won't see the device attached to it has changed unless you power cycle the modem and attached device.
