Assign a Static Address

There are two ways to assign a static address to your device:

• Using the Control Panel
• Use Command Prompt

Here we are going to discuss the setting of static IP Addresses using the Control Panel.

A static IP address is one that does not change over time and can be assigned to a computer connected to the Internet. Every device that connects to your router receives a dynamic IP address by default. This is known as DHCP (short for Dynamic Host Control Protocol). However, there are occasions when we require our devices to connect to the network using a static IP address or the same IP address each time. for this reason,

• Utilize the Internet to access your computer.
• Share information between two connected devices. 
• Quickly gain access to your NAS or network printer.
• Use your PC to serve the media, or you must use a static IP address to connect to the Wi-Fi at work.
