Yes you can turn off DHCP in the router and it does the same thing. As long as you have a connection to something and it can't get a DHCP address, then it will prompt for a manual address. If you don't have a connection the "there is no connection" codes takes precedence and assigns a generic address. The set a static address only kicks in when DHCP fails.
