5 ghz SSID to 2.4 ghz SSID
Model: C7000v2 Firmware: V1.03.03 Wifi connection to Brennan B2 Keep losing connection to B2 due to constantly changing IP address (assigned by router?). It seems the wifi dongle for the B2...
Netgear Genie I use is https://192.168.0.1
I tried using higher numbers when reserving the address with no luck
Try setting the small IP address pool range size then setup a reservation as suggested.
I'm a little leery to change the range as several other devices are connected using smaller number ...0.11, ...0.23, ...0.18, etc.
They will get new IPs when the modem reboots.
W/ B2 off, I reserved an IP address within specified range in Netgear Genie via Advanced>Setup>LAN Setup and hit Apply.
I rebooted the router.
Turned B2 on.
AND THE IP ADDRESSES CHANGED
Attached Devices: 192.168.0.14 (don't know where this came from)
Advanced: 192.168.0.57 (this is the address I reserved)
B2 Display: 192.168.0.20 (number assigned by router)
Is it possible to completely delete any mention of my peripheral from the Netgear Genie.
I'd like to reconnect from scratch and see what happens.
SHAZAM!!!!
I think I got it. I blocked the original B2 in the Attached Devices List. Reserved the address assigned by the router, and attached the B2 to a "Hidden Network" manually entering the 2.4Ghz SSID. I rebooted everything and the IP addresses remained the same.
Furry, I really appreciate the help!
I'd still like to know if I can delete the blocked items in the Attached Device list.
Glad you got it working.
IF there connected to the modem and get a IP address thru the modem I presume they will always appear there until they are no longer connected.
How do I disconnect them and or delete them? I've blocked several that have been replaced/thrown out but they still show up.
