Reserved IP Addresses
When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer always
receives the same IP address when it access the router’s DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses
should be assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings.
To reserve an IP address:
1. Log in to the wireless router (see “Logging In to the Wireless Router” on page 1-2, and select
LAN IP Setup.
2. In the Address Reservation section on the LAN IP Setup screen, click Add.
3. In the IP Address field, type the IP address to assign to the computer or server.
Choose an IP address from the router’s LAN subnet, such as 10.1.1.x.
4. Type the MAC address of the computer or server.
Tip: If the computer is already present on your network, you can copy its MAC
address from the Attached Devices screen and paste it here.
5. Click Apply to enter the reserved address into the table.
Note: The reserved address will not be assigned until the next time the computer
contacts the router’s DHCP server. You can reboot the computer, or access its
IP configuration, to force a DHCP release and renew.
To edit or delete a reserved address entry:
1. In the Address Reservation table on the LAN IP Setup screen, select the radio button next to
the reserved address you want to edit or delete.
2. Click Edit or Delete.
