Thanks Scott. I read the discussion. The poster was given advise and then he said there was no button to add a new static ip. ANother person answered saying: > For "Static DHCP" to always assign the same IP to a given device: > Click Advanced, Yes, IP Address Distribution, Connection List.

Otherwise click New Static > Connection and enter the MAC address and IP. I did go to the IP address distribution list. I did click the edit button. There is no button for static connection.

I have the ip address a mac config number from the printer's status page. I go to the Actiontec page. However, I do not know how to get to the DHCP configuration page.
