Problem with LAN Setup, Address Reservation
Hello,
Nighthawk X10 R9000 - Router Firmware Version V1.0.4.28
The router is functioning perfectly: fyi...
However, I have three devices that I add to the LAN Setup, Address Reservation -->...
Use this as a guide, modify accordingly.
LAN address of router: 192.168.1.1
DHCP Pool 192.168.1.100 ~ 192.168.1.200
Assign a static IP, subnet mask and gateway to the Dell's NIC which is above or below the DHCP pool range specified above.
or
Re-enable the Address Reservation. Assign an IP which is (again) above or below the DHCP pool you've specified to the Dell's NIC MAC address. Leave DHCP enabled on the NIC, disable / enable the interface. It will grab the IP you specified in the reservation.
If you use my suggestion(s), the IP will never change, no device will ever get the Dell's IP and your port forwarding will work without issue.
I am having the same problem. I have many home automation devices I ran fine on an old router. Just got this R9000 and no matter what, the devices are moving around iP address wise. My pool is 100 to 254 as I put static devices below 100. Home automation works better when the addresses don't move around but I didn't want to have to assign a static ip to each of them.
Address reservation on the R9000 flat does not work.

"flat" or lumpy, a useful problem report of this type would include
the version of the (apparently defective) firmware. (And, as always,
an actual version number would be more useful than anyone's opinion of
what's "latest" today.)
