Add static IP address to individual device
Firstly, I hope everyone is having a Merry Christmas and enjoying the holidays! My question. How do I set static IP addresses for specific devices on my home network? I am using the T-Mobile Arcady...
If you are referring to local clients you have to do that at each client. The DHCP scope runs, as far as I can determine, from 912.168.12.101 - 192.168.12.254. The gateway IP is 192.168.12.1 so you cannot use that IP address. You can provide static IP addresses to clients from .2 to .100 but should avoid setting static addresses in the DHCP scope.
If you are referring to the external IP address you have no control over that. With a business account subscribers can request a static IP but I am pretty sure that comes with additional cost. The external public facing IPv4 addresses are shared due to how they 464XLAT is done. T-Mobile has an IPv6 network so there are some limitations as to what is allowed and how things are done.
