As the title says, when trying to reserve an IP address under LAN settings I get the following error: "Invalid MAC Address" followed by the MAC address of the device.
Re: X6S R7900P Invalid MAC address when reserving IPs
"You might look for some 3rd party FW or consider getting into a newer generation router"
I am having the same issue. When I try to edit or add an address reservation, I receive the "Invalid Mac Address" message. The above response does not make sense to me. Netgear releases a new version of the firmware, it has this bug, and the solution is "get a new router?". If new firmware is released that contains a bug, the firmware should be fixed by Netgear, regardless of the hardware support status, and made known to the users. This is not "we want new function", I do not expect (nor want) that with end-of-life as passed. This is "we want current function you broke to be fixed".
