    FYI, the beta fixes the IP address reservation issue.

       Netgear Nighthawk R8000P / FW Version 1.4.4.94_1.3.56

       

      When attempting to establish a static IP for a Frameo picture frame, I get an "Invalid MAC Address" error. I try changing the last octet to .84 (which is an open and free IP on my router) when getting the error. I have selected other open IPs with no luck. I even attempted to set a static IP for the one the router assigns, I get the same thing. Picture of the error (MAC blanked out) with the FW version is attached. 

       

      The software for the Frameo is updated to the most current version. Over to you guys. Thanks.
