Model: Deco XE75 Pro  
Hardware Version: V6
Firmware Version:

I just purchased a TP-Link USB 3.0 Port Hub and Ethernet adapter (UE330) it works with my XE75, but I want to assign it a specific IP reservation of x.x.x 75.

 

My Deco app reports it as Unknown device, which know I should be able to change, but its not using the IP address I want.

I know that address is available since I removed the previous Hub that was using it.

 

My media player GUI and NAS are all set up for the previously used IP address and its a pain to go through and change it all.

 

How do I assign it the specific address I want it to use?  

 

So far I can only change the used IP by rebooting the media device and hoping it gets a different IP.

There must be a better way!

 

Thanks

If the device is connected to the Deco:

in the Deco app:

- more, advanced, address reservation

- tap on "+" in the right upper corner

- tap on "select from client"

- tap on the client, 

- tap on "save"

- the client is now present in the list of reserved addresses, with its current IP address

- tap again on the client, 

- modify the IP address to x.x.x 75

- tap save

- the client is now present in the list of reserved addresses, with x.x.x 75 as IP address

- reboot the device

 

If the device is not connected to the Deco:

in the Deco app:

- more, advanced, address reservation

- tap on "+" in the right upper corner

- tap on "custom"

- type the MAC address of the client, and x.x.x 75 as IP address

- tap "save"

- connect the device
