I managed to set a static IP in the following and thought I should share.

Edit the wpa_actions.sh file

Comment following line:

Then add these lines:


Further I commented this line in:


This prevents falling back to ap_mode. Since the /tmp/isalive is never created

The changes listed above did not work on my rooted hub. I made some slight tweaks shown below and now I have a working static IP. FYI, I am on firmware 2.49 (just released today on 2/5/2016).

NOTE!: Make a backup of your wpa_action.sh file by using this command (prior to changing your file):
cp /root/wifi/wpa_action.sh /root/wifi/wpa_action.sh_bak

After the file is saved, you can test the script by running the following:
sh /root/wifi/wpa_action.sh wlan0 CONNECTED
ifconfig


#!/bin/bash
IFACE=$1
EVENT=$2

case $EVENT in

CONNECTED) logger -p notice -s "Received event: $EVENT"
set_rgb 127 83 0 0 0 0 flash 500000
echo "ATTEMPTING_TO_GET_IP" > /tmp/connection_status
# udhcpc -i $IFACE --retries 15 --timeout 3 --syslog --tryagain 10 -R
ifconfig $IFACE 192.168.0.97 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default gw 192.168.0.1
echo "nameserver 192.168.0.50 # wlan0" > /tmp/resolv.conf
