static ip for printer
I have the nighthawk wifi 6 (ax) router and am looking for assistance in setting up a static IP for a printer. Am not sure where to put it in the router. Am thinking in Advanced Setup, static Routes. Can anyone help me. TIA
Just so you know, Static IPs are set ON devices, not the router. IP address reservations are set ON the router.

- Which router model? "wifi 6 (ax)" is not a model number! Look at the router's label
Which firmware version? A version, not "the latest"
A static IP is set on the devices itself, not on the router. What you're looking for is reserved DHCP address. You can do so in Advanced -> LAN SetupSorry, it's an AX6 AX5400 6-stream router: Firmware Version V1.0.12.120_2.0.83
RAX50 is the key for the model.
RAX50 — Nighthawk AX6 6-Stream AX5400 WiFi 6 Router In the Documentation Section https://www.netgear.com/support/product/rax50#docs you find the Nighthawk AX6 6-Stream AX5400 WiFi Router Models RAX50 and RAX50v2 User Manual, on p.50 there is a chapter on "Manage reserved LAN IP addresses".
