Just edit your /etc/network/interfaces. It should look like this (I guess
your network interface on your laptop is eth0)

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.0.10
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.0.0
        broadcast 192.168.0.255
        gateway 192.168.0.1
