How to give one of my PC's on the network a static ip address so it will not change
I am using a AC-1750 R6400 router. I have several PC's connected to my home network. I need one of my PC's to have an ip address that will not change whenever the router is booted. I remotely access a server on the PC through port 1880. I need to have that particular PC always available at the same ip address.
I would appreciate asssitance on how to configure the router to accomplish this.

Is that accurate? R6400[v1] or R6400v2? Look for "Model" on the
product label. Firmware version?

Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your (actual) model number,
and look for Documentation. Get the User Manual. Read. Look for a
topic like "Manage Reserves [sic] LAN IP Addresses". Further reading
might not hurt, either.
Terminology: A "static" address is configured on the device itself.
What you configure on a (DHCP server on a) router is a reserved dynamic
address, not a static address. Either one should fix the address of a
device, but some implications are different, so it helps to know which
you mean.
