Reserve LAN IP Addresses
When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer always
receives the same IP address each time it accesses the modem router’s DHCP server.
Assign reserved IP addresses to computers or servers that require permanent IP settings.
To reserve an IP address:
1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type
http://www.routerlogin.net
or
http://www.routerlogin.com
.
A login window opens.
3.
Enter the user name and password.
The user name is
admin
. The user name and password are case-sensitive.

field, type the IP address to assign to the computer or server.
Choose an IP address from the modem router’s LAN subnet, such as 192.168.0.x.
7.
Type the MAC address of the computer or server.
Tip:
If the computer is already on your network, you can copy its MAC
address from the Attached Devices page and paste it here.
