Address Reservation doesn't work for Samsung Smart TV
Hi so my Samsung TV will not work with the Address Reservation option in the router, it will actually change ip adresses amost daily, I normally don't use the samsung smart tv functions since I have a roku premiere plus connected to it. But I'am somewhat baffleed that its only my tv that keeps getting a new ip adresses all the time.

What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?Is the TV FW up to date as well?
Do other devices work with a IP address reservation ON the router?
So my firmware is the current one and its only my TV doing it, no other device. Also my modem is an SB6190.
Can do this,
Set a new IP address pool on the Orbo to 192.168.1.100 to .200
Then set a Static IP address ON the TV out side of the pool mentioned above. Say 192.168.1.40, input 192.168.1.1 for the gateway and DNS, use same subnet mask as seen on the router. Save these settings ON the TV.
Let us know what happens.
Be aware of your ISP Modem:

Address reservations should always work if it’s properly set.
- Are you sure there’s no other router in your network providing IP addresses?
- Is your ISP modem in bridged mode and not acting as DHCP server?
- In the network settings of the Samsung TV, is it pointing to the Orbi as gateway?
