You dont need to touch the ip address of the pc if you are flashing the router, the router assigns an address automatically. What you need to do is flash the firmware on the router and make sure that is working ok after the flash, after its ok it will automatically assign an ip address for the pc, once that is done and you can get onto the internet then go into the network settings and change to a static address of your choice. You also need to make sure you follow the instructions in the post on DD-WRT as you are flashing twice not once to install new firmware.
