R8000 nighthawk IP adress reservation not working

Hi,

 

Having problem with making a reservation for my surveilance cams. Want them on static IP so I can record through my SynologyNAS.

 

Have other products reserved since before such as NAS, extenders and so on.

But is not able to add more, just gets "400 bad request, the server does not support the opertion requested by your client"

 

Any ideas why this is a problem. Made an upgrade to the latest firmware, cause that was not done, but no difference.

 

Could anybody help me?

  • Hi Simone,

     

    As it looks, I got it to work.

    It seems like the system is case sensitive, cause when I added it with big letters, it worked.

    Nowhere it says anything about this more than when creating admin account. 

    But it is solved. Could be great to know for you, and maybe update the manual?

     

    Anyway, thanks for the help

    Hi Tuggarn

     

    Welcome to the NETGEAR Community :)

     

    When you try to assign a static IP address to your surveillance cams, do you follow the steps listed on the User Manual

      Hi Simona,

      I’ve done exactly like that. I have reservations since before here.
      But when adding a new static IP it does not work anymore.

      Any trixs that you know about?

      Hi @Tuggarn


      Thank for your reply :)

       

      A part the firmware update, have you changed anything on your Network? For example: connection type, if the router is connected to a different modem and whatsoever?
