This solution works but unfortunately, every time my router reboots, I have to manually reconnect the Skybell HD including deleting the device, factory reset, etc. Anyone figure out how to have it connect automatically again or is this up to Netgear or Skybell?

You can reserve an IP address for the satellite under Advanced Tab/Setup/Lan. Add a reservation here for the satellite.
