RBS850 assigning new IP addresses to existing devices that were assigned a static IP address
I have the AX6000 RBS850 which i have had for a month. Its a nightmare. One of the issues is that i have a list of devices that need to have static IP's so i assigned them. I have had to reboo...
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
By static do you mean set on devices or as in IP address reservation set ON the router. There is a difference.
I've got v32 loaded on my and both RBS are ethernet connected. IP address reservations for the RBS and 1 wired PC. DHCP IP address pool on mine is set for .100 thru .150 for my needs. I on'y have about 30 devices. I have a few cameras, printers and NAS which at set to static IPs outside the DHCP IP address pool. Everything else is Dynamic IP addressed assigned.

MY DHCP adress range is the default 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254. and my Firmware Version is
V3.2.15.25_1.3.15.under the advanced tab "attahced devices" i have added about a dozon adress reservations. They are in the same range as the default. Are you suggesting that the router will step on "RESERVATIONS" because they are in the range? I woudl hope not.
No. Reservations should be with in the routers iP address pool. Static IPs belong out side the pool which you don't have room for that.
- I don’t think I understand the terminology clearly enough to understand what you said? What is the difference between a static ip and a reservation. I thought creating a reservation, Creates a static IP. Is that not true? What I want is for these devices to always have the same up adresses and to never get assigned a different one.
