Add reservation error
Trying to add a reservation for my setup box. I get the following error when clicking apply..
The reservation itself I selected from the selection list. So it has to be correct.
Any advice?
Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Do you have this device on the Guest Network? You can't reserve IPs for the Guest Network. Can only reserve IPs on the main LAN under 192.168.1.x

Thanks for the reply. The device is not on guest. My whole network is set to 192.168.2.x That is how I set it up. The strange thing is that the reservation is made and it is added to the list.
I know you may not have GN enabled however by default the GN uses 192.168.2.1 as it's default IP address subnet from the main default subnet of 192.168.1.1. Possible that even though GN is not enabled, the system sees this and maybe causing the error seen in the browser. I'd not recommend using .2.x as your main subnet address for the main LAN. Should you later on enable GN, possible this would cause problems.
