Maximum Orbi Reserved LAN IP Addresses
What is the maximum number of Reserved LAN IP Addresses supported on the Orbi? Thanks.
it doesnt say in the gui , but like all routers there will be a limit , im running about 10 clients with reserved ip addressing
I have 55 devices on my network. I would like to manage the DHCP reservation list for ~45 of the devices. My current router supports only 26 reserved DHCP IP addresses. It would be great to know the maximum number that the Orbi supports, as this will be a deciding factor for me. Thanks.
i see no sense setting every device to a reserved ip address , sure for those devices that need a fixed ip address for port forwarding etc but not all devices need that
the other reason not to include everything is it does put more load on the cpu and ram as all that stuff demands cpu time
there is no security gain in having everything reserved ether so no real performnce or logical reason to reserve everything
