Re: How do I configure my 5861 when I get my static IP I did something along the lines of what you're looking to do - I can't give a nice list of commands like dslkia did because I ended up using the Windoze configuration software that comes with the router. I'd *intended* to do it with the CLI but 379 pages of CLI reference manual wasn't compatible with getting things working quickly 
It was pretty straightforward using the GUI (which had the added advantage that it automatically backed up the router config first). I just turned off NAT, set up the IP, gateway, subnet etc as specified, turned on some filtering, saved and rebooted and...that was about it, really. If you plan to continue to use the built-in DHCP server, you'll need to change the settings for that too - the only two IPs I'm using so far are both statically assigned, so I turned it off.
Note that the admin IP stays the same (it can be changed, but only from the CLI, I think) - however, if you have the 5861 as your default gateway for machines behind it, that shouldn't be a problem.
