Hard coded? Not really. The router will set it according to the local circumstances on your network.

 

What is the modem/gateway, if there is one, in front of this router?

Hi  michaelkenward, thanks for replying.

I have a Motorola M8600 along with R7000P(v.1.3.3.142 -HotFix)

Being already logged into the configuration page, I lose access once WiFi issues arise (wired stays ok) with the page refusing connection until cycled. The app however continues to be able to access the router.
