I bought PC components and made a PC myself a couple of months ago. First, I did not realise about the WiFi card the last PC had, so, as the router is far away from my PC, I bought a TP-Link repeater (tl-wa860re) to connect my PC to it by Ethernet cable.
Suddenly, I realised it was not possible to assigned a fixed IP using Ethernet cable, so I bought a WiFi card (specs of it on Additional Information).


Current situation:

With that card now, the repeater sometimes makes me lose connection to the Internet ("Connected and no Internet" error, but in general it does work great (all of this letting the router assigning IPs automatically).
Now, when I try to set those parameters on the IPv4 protocol I had before on the old PC, it just loses connection and, when connecting to any of my 2 WiFis (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), it does not give Internet, and when setting IP to automatic again, it does receive.
If I set the First and Second DNS as I had in the older PC, the Internet works or not, depending on IPv4 settings, so I think DNS is not the problem.

What can I do to set fixed IP again? I did not gave many details, as I am not very aware of what should I give apart from that
