The secret is to connect the Touch to something that does not provide
DHCP services.

I recommend plugging it in (wired, NOT wireless) into a laptop ethernet
jack. The laptop should not be connected to anything else, escpecially
make sure it is not connected wirelessly to a router.

Goto the settings>advanced>networking menu and try and connect via
ethernet (wired connection). This will not find a DHCP server and
default to asking you for a static IP. Enter the IP address. 

NOW you can disconnect it from the laptop and hook it up normally,
wired or wireless to your network.
