Setup Static IP for MN-500

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

Huh?

Typically, ISP issue "public" IP addresses to customers. It's not unheard
of - yet still unusual - for an ISP to give you a "private" (i.e.
non-addressable) IP. Are you sure you have this correct? Do you know if
your ISP is doing NAT or something on their end?

The problem is that the MN-100 & MN-500 can not have there IP address be
on a different network then the default gateway. You IP address is on
the 192.168.1.* network while the gateway is on a different network, the
192.168.0.* network. The only solutions are the following.

1) Change ISP's
2) Get a different router & put the MN-500 in bridge mode
3) Have your ISP change it so that your gateway is on the same network
as your IP address

Those are the only options I see for you. I am assuming that you have
told us the truth about your IP address & subnet mask.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. The IP's are correct!
So I guess I'll have to try to get my ISP to change the
IP's
