You can set IP on your Amino set top box.

By default, the Amino TV set top box is designed to automatically grab an IP address using the DHCP settings on your wireless router. However, if you have customized your router settings to rely on static IP addresses rather than randomly assigned DHCP addresses, you will need to configure the Amino by entering the IP address manually. Using the Amino's wireless keyboard, you can do this by accessing its Network Configuration options. The process should only take about a minute or so.
