TheRock598 0 Posted October 7, 2014 Hi All, I have a LaView LV-KDV2804W1 DVR and my router is a Actiontec R1000H fibreOp. I know I am doing something wrong setting up both to communicate properly without interuption, so I am asking here for help. I will explain how I have it setup right now. Right now the only way I can get the email alerts to be sent to my iPhone is to enable DHCP in DVR. (Is there a way to do that within the DVR with DHCP unchecked?) But problem with that is when I get a power bump sometimes the local ip address changes. If I set a 192**** address for the ports then with a power bump it changes and I cannot access the video when away. I cannot access the router when away to find out which ip address it assigned Is it possible to set a static address for the DVR with DHCP still enabled in the router for the other electronics connected? If the answer is yes, can someone please give me a detailed walkthrough on where to enter the info in my Actiontec R1000H router? Greatly appreciate any info on this cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samir 0 Posted October 17, 2014 Yes, you can set a static dhcp or static ip reservation in the actiontec (as well as most routers these days). Unfortunately, it's been about a year since I've been near an actiontec router, so I can't remember where the settings might be. Just do some searches on 'actiontec dhcp reservation' and it should lead you in the right direction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
