If you are running a wireless router, the router will automatically alocate you an IP address between 192.168.0.0 and 192.168.255.255. But before the router can do that, make sure you have your PC set to AUTO IP address. That can be found in the Tools/Internet Option/Connection/LAN Settings of Internet Explorer.
But you say you have no traffic? You don't mean that, right?
As far as your IP address and the outside world is concerned: if you have a fixed IP address then you have problems. If your IP address is determined by your ISP, then you have nothing to worry about.
One word of advise by the way: CHANGE THE ACCESS PASSWORD ON YOUR WIRELESS ROUTER. Or you can wait till somebode hacks into it and then mess up your system. I am amazed how many people leave that trap door open. I have hacked just for fun many routers of my mates just to show them what can be done.
