Cannot reserve static IP addresses

When I try to add a reservation for a Static IP address, I get this error each time. I cannot set static ips.

I have tried all 3 browsers. I use Firefox.

[DarrenM]

Yes.

This is one of 2 exact same modems I purchased. One works great.

This one has this problem and also the dlna will not recognize a hard drive that works on the other modem just fine.

I think it is a firmware issue, but Netgear does not update firmware, and Suddenlink does not update firmware for those customers who use their own equipment.

The whole thing is one big circle jerk.
