Model: Archer AX10  
Hardware Version: V20
Firmware Version: 1.3.1 Build 20220401 Rel. 57404(5553)

How can I use different IP ranges for dynamic DHCP so they don't overlap with static DHCP? eg.

 

i want dynamic dhcp to use only 192.168.0.100-200, but static dhcp to use 192.168.0.2-99

Hmm, I'm not use it, but that isn't the way I used to do it?

 

Checked the Emulator, seems that is how it is done:

Make no sense to me? Even on the Support page there is a video link to YouTube that shows the same (https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/archer-ax10/}?

 

Static and Reserved are 2 different things.

 

Reserved are addresses within the pool. Doing that the IP Address pool will reserve the specified address for that MAC address only. That way it will not give it out to any other device.

 

Static are IP Addresses you set on the Device. Normally one would set that OUTSIDE of the Router IP Address pool. The idea being that YOU manage what IP Address your devices get and ones you don't care about, the Router from within the pool gives out the addresses that are not constantly the same for any device that isn't assigned a Reserved one.

 

Seems like you are trying to set a Static IP Address, that is one outside the IP Address Pool, and if so, you do that on the device IP Address Properties. Do not use one in the same range of the Router IP Address pool or if you do, you could have collisions and a device would be disconnected.

No need to shout (use large text),

 

So you set the DHCP server accordingly.

 

On the Router GUI DHCP page under the Network settings set the IP Address to 192.168.0.100 and end at 192.168.0.200.

 

That leaves the reest, 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.99 and 192.168.0.201 to 192.68.0.253 for you to use.

 

Either as a reserved IP Address in the table on the DHCP page based on MAC Address (be careful as Apple devices and others that use Private Addressing will change the MAC address and they will not get the Reserved Address) or you to MANAGE them if you use STATIC IP Address which you probably should not mix anyway.

  @IrvSp i'm using the default font (14px), not sure why it ended up so big.
on the dhcp ui, i can't static allocation outside the IP Address Pool range.

 

i get the error 'Enter an IP address within the IP address pool.'
