Model: Deco X50 - PoE  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

Is it possible to set the IP of this deco to a static address when in this mode?  The only instructions I see describing this action assume it to be in Router mode.  When you follow those tinstructions he option is not available on the "Advanced" screen - using the android app.

Yes, it is, but not in Deco app. You do that on router to which Main Deco is connected.

Not sure that is quite the same thing.  I can tell the router to issue the same Ip address as before via DHCP though it has to come from the allocated DHCP pool on a BTHomehub. What I would ideally like to do is configure it with a static address outside that pool.  It's not clear to me why you can do that when acting as a router and not when acting as an access point.  Not a big deal but make the network map look a bit messy.
