So I'm quite perplexed by this... I used the basic technique of going to network and sharing center, going to ethernet properties selecting Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/ipv4) and selecting an ip address for myself which is in the range of IPs on my router page.

So I checked ipconfig and got this and this page and thought I was done, but when I checked in game and also through another software it showed my computer's ip address to be 192.168.56.1 instead of 192.168.0.13

Also my router has this special page that says it can set a static ip but didn't help

I'm using a Dlink DIR-825ACG1 as my home router

    looks like you are either confusing your local NIC with a virtual box nic, or you are confused about how nat connections work in VBox. vbox NAT networks are on a seperate (virtual) network than you host lan network. if you want the virtualbox VM to operate on the same network as your host or other LAN hosts, use a bridged connection in vbox (edit the vm settings -> network interface) and it will pull an IP from your LAN DHCP server, and be accessible to all your lan hosts.

    This worked! I deleted my VM application and it deleted the Virtual box nic
