Hi new to the group and I have been searching for the answer with no luck. I have a brand new orbi system operationg in router mode. I am looking to create a static IP addresss for a LAN client that need a consistant address to work. In 2 days the router has already reassigned the clients IP address making it not work. I already have the port forwarding working but I cant figure out how to do a static client ip address on this router. Thanks in advance.

Log into Orbi GUI. Go to Advanced->Setup-> LAN Setup.

Click Add under Address Reservation

the other option is to set static ip addresses on the client devices themselves , this would be fine for devices that stay in the home environment
