If you use the gui (Desktop->System settings -> network, etc.) to configure the network, and you tell it to get IP info through dhcp AFTER you previously gave it a static IP address, it does not write out properly the ifcfg-eth0 file. Look at /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (or whatever interface you have). If it contains anything reminiscent of the static ip configuration, delete it, and add and configure a new interface in the network gui.
