I tried setting up all to be *reserved* (not static! seems like that's used to define when the address is set on the *device*, not the router).
There are two different things here.
You can either use Address Reservation on the router, or fix a Static IP Address on the device itself. You seem to be doing both at the same time. Is that correct?
This AM changed my DHCP range back to default (192.168.0.2 thru 192.168.0.254), reset the computer, no change.
Why did you pick 192.168.0.1 rather than the usual default 192.168.1.1?
I am sure you had good reasons for both choices, I ask these questions simply to get to the bottom of what is going on at your end. That may help the real IP experts to cut to the chase.
I've figured out everything, and everything is now awesome!
I got rid of the RAXE300 and jumped ship to ASUS RT-AX86U : got it at BestBuy and this thing ROCKS (for those who enjoy tinkering and having an admin console page that isn't dumbed down, and a DHCP server and reserved address system that lets you do them all at once rather than update after each single entry).
Goodbye Netgear! Hello ASUS!
