RBR50 with static IP address provider.
To use the router's built-in VPN function, a static IP address is required, which I is guaranteed by my provider. my router is by default set up to retrieve the static ip address from my provider vi...
I would contact the ISP to see if they can help on this. Seems like the Static address is not being allowed on the RBR. Ask them if you have to set static ON the RBR or use DHCP and let then know what your seeing when you use static.
Yes with dynamically assigned IP address, everything works OK, and I am always guaranteed the same IP address.
The problem is that I want to enable the router's VPN function, which can only happen if the router is set to "Use Static IP Address"
Did you power off the modem and RBR for 30 seconds then back ON after you set a static on the RBR?
So you can't setup VPN on the RBR until the RBR is set for static?
