Having two DHCP servers with overlapping IP ranges is A Bad Thing.

My router is set to do DHCP in the range .100 to .199.  My PC has a
static address set via NM as .10. All static IP addresses (for me) are
in the range .10 to .50.  My wife has .51 to .98. Thus, peace and
harmony are preserved.

Another option is to set a reserved address on the router for your
computer so it always gets .9 and let NM use NetworkManager. That's
probably the way I should have set up my network, but I'm too lazy to go
back and fix things.
