Different IP address after power outage

[eddyk]

Hello,

 

I understand that my router assigns a IP address to ISY. If the power goes out and returns, the ISY might have a different IP address. it's either 192.168.1.100 or 192.168.1.101

 

I have a linksys router. Is there any way to "fix" the IP address for ISY?

 

Thanks,

 

Eddy K.

I don't have a linksys router (at least not with the official firmware) so I can't give you instructions, but most routers have a DHCP setting to reserve an IP address for a specific device.

 

You could also forget DHCP for ISY and telnet to isy and set a static IP address.

Make sure to assign it an address outside of your router's DHCP range.
