I also did that for my Tivo.

I don't know what they call it on a Linksys, but I've seen it called "Vitural Server" on the D-Links. Somewhere in the router's config (usually http://192.168.0.1) there's a place where you can map your MAC Address to an internal IP. If you can't find it, let me know what model router you've got and I'll see if I can find in the online docs how to do it.
