Will static IP and gateway alleviate this threat? I guess at what level too.


I tend to think yes. If the initial attack as i understand it, is from a dhcp server handing out poisoned options, then if a client is set-up as static from the get-go it'll never request a lease to begin with and, well, there you have it.
