- Oct 30, 2019The IP you did was fine, you did it correctly. I would recommend you follow our optimal settings guides to get the most out of the router: http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/folders/16000090646

If I remove static ip from Xbox I think it will change ip on Xbox every time I boot it up

If you set the IP as reserved on the router, then the router will give it the same IP address every time.
An IP address reservation makes the router keep the IP unoccupied ready for the Xbox.
A static IP is more like the Xbox demanding an IP that the router might not have at the ready.
