Model: EAP110-Outdoor  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 5.0.4 Build 20220216 Rel. 57495(4555)

Currently, my eap110 outdoor is assigned a dynamic address. I would like this to be static but my understanding of gateways etc is very basic so I am unsure how to set this.

 

My bt router ip address is defined as follows:

 

 

The eap110 has been assigned an address of 192.168.1.155 currently.

 

When I click the eap110 static option, I get this:

 

 

Assuming I wanted to stick with 192.168.1.155 as the static ip address, what should I have in the ip address, ip mask, gateway and primary dns fields?

 

I am not fixed on 155 as the address and could use one in the 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.63 range as seemingly defined as not dhcp on the bt router.

As a general rule of thumb the Gateway and DNS should be the Router/Hub which for you is the 192.168.1.254

 

Secondary DNS is likely not required in your setup
