Orbi RBR50 error message fixed IP address
I'm trying to assign fixed IP addresses to some of the devices connected to my Orbi RBR50 router. I'm using version V2.1.2.18 of the firmware. I think I should be able to set this up under "ADVANCED"...

You you guys running in this? https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/orbi-rbk50-RBR50-plus-two-RBS50-cannot-set-address-reservation/td-p/1524528/jump-to/first-unread-message
Or is this problem different?
Are you setting up a new name with reservation? How many characters are you using when you go to set up a reservation and hit save?

What browser are you using? Try IE11, FF or Opera and see if you get the same error message?

I think I should be able to set this up under "ADVANCED" - "Setup" - "LAN Setup" - "Address Reservation". When I click "Add" it goes to a new screen containing an "Address Reservation Table". In the table I can select the device I want to give a fixed IP address. But when I do that and I click "Add" (at the top), I keep getting this error message: "400 Bad Request. This server does not support the operation requested by your client." Is this an error in the firmware or am I making a mistake somewhere?

Hello FURRYe38, thank you for your reply. I'm using Safari (on my MacBook Pro). I just tried using Chrome but I got the same error message.
