  • kindly follow these steps before assigning any static Ip to any device.
    1.First, check what the IP pool available on your router is. Your router will have a total pool and a pool specifically reserved for DHCP assignments. The total pool available to home routers is typically 10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255 or 192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255 . Then, within those ranges a smaller pool is reserved for the DHCP server, typically around 252 addresses in a range like 10.0.0.2 through 10.0.0.254. Once you know the general pool, you should use the following rules to assign static IP addresses:

    2.Never assign an address that ends in .0 or .255 as these addresses are typically reserved for network protocols. This is the reason the example IP address pool above ends at .254.
    Never assign an address to the very start of the IP pool, e.g. 10.0.0.1 as the start address is always reserved for the router. Even if you’ve changed the IP address of your router for security purposes, I still suggest against assigning a computer.

    3.Never assign an address outside of the total available pool of private IP addresses. This means if your router’s pool is 10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255 every IP you assign (keeping in mind the prior two rules) should fall within that range.

  • The first 3 bytes of MAC address is translated into 02:0F:B5 as mentioned . Please log into router and add translated MAC addresses into IP reservation list.

  • Check the IP availability on the router page. Generally the availability starts from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255. Check the rules and assign the IP accordingly to make things work for yourself and you are good to go
