AXE11000 RBSE960 System receives 400 Bad Request while appying static IP address
I am trying to add some static IP address reservations. In the menu Advanced -> Setup -> LAN Setup, I have added the devices to the list of static IP Address Reservations. When I Click on the APPL...

Might try doing one at a time, rather than several at once.
There is newer firmware:
https://kb.netgear.com/000066069/RBRE960-RBSE960-Firmware-Version-7-2-6-31
(although this does not seem to be the sort of thing that a firmware update would address)
No special characters or very long entries?

By this: "Might try doing one at a time, rather than several at once." did you mean reboot? And if so, using what method? Or did you mean firmware update.

The suggestion was to "Add" one device, then click "Apply".
Then Add the next and click Apply.
etc.
If several are being added at one time, it could be that one is causing an error condition and the others are not.
Perhaps a silly question. NAS Port 1 and NAS Port 2 have different MAC addresses, correct?
Your observation about the satellite web page not including an option to reboot is correct. It is also annoying that Netgear chose to save $0.25 by omitting the Power Switch from the AX product line.

Not a silly question.. yes, unique mac addresses. Once I figure out if my cheapy switch supports link aggregation, I will just load balance.
The Main Router firmware updated, but the Satellites will not. The firmware update give me a failed message and returns me to the update screen (the one where you browse for the upzipped firmware data). Looking at the release notes, I could use this update not only for security, but I also have an issue with a laptop roaming - but first things first.
I will re-read the firmware update pdf. I am on a wired connection for the router, and tried both wireless and the wired connection through the base station to log into the satellites.

Some progress and some awareness moments. While I was having a refreshing American Lager during an evening break, I recalled seeing two firmware packages, and then a person I know and trust let me know that the mesh nodes are gendered. RBR and RBS. Since they all came in the same box, I thought the firmware would be dual path. But, after seeing the login menus, I see there are separate firmware for the two roles in the Mesh. So, I'm up on all nodes on V7 firmware. Bad news is I still have the 400 error.
The reason for the static IP in the first place was so I could let my browser manage the password for administration logins to my NAS on an IP that is well known. So, back to that issue.
