• Reviews around ip (1.22 of 5)

    Google WiFi Router by TP-Link - OnHub AC1900 (Managed by Google WiFi APP)

    • I was able to easily assign a static ip number to one of my devices but expect that options for other activities will increase with each firmware update.
    • Easy to set up except that the documentation did not clearly how explain how to give a hard-wired networked device a fixed IP
    • I will try to set up the DMZ again, or at minimum a static IP for my PS4.Other than that we've had no issues
    • This time it worked... static ip configured and it's online
    • The bad - I've been wanting to assign static IP's to a couple of devices that are hardwired via a switch I have connected, but when looking at the network and trying to find which Mac address is assigned to what device, the current UI refreshes the list every time you look at a device then go back
    • Guest network, done, Static IP's, done, Channel selection...wait what
    • Verified all over components then tried to update the firmware by setting a static IP and networking with the unit directly to my computer.
    • Unfortunately, the static IP configuration didn't go well.
    • Yep, just go to the menu with one press, Advanced Networking with the next, Static IP, and then select the device you want to add
    • This is insane as I have both dynamic and static IP which I have to manually input again
    • It doesn't have a lot of configuration options if you've got a custom setup, and even things like static IP addresses weren't working consistently for me
    • It took me 15 minutes to configure the On to have a static IP and it took me another 15 minutes (fighting with the android app, wifi connectivity,etc) to get it back to
    • You can utilize port-forwarding to those static IP-set devices.- Android App works well, and set up went pretty smoothly.- The guest network was easy to set up too: specifically, it was easy to select devices on your primary network to bridge with the guest network for shared access (ie, my chromecast and one of my DLNA servers).Cons: - I was aware when I was getting the device of the one LAN port... that is frustrating, but again, I knew it going
    • I've now configured two static IP addresses on two of my devices
    • Setting static IP isn't very intuitive and you cannot change the name of the device in the list something most other routers do
    • I've got several devices on my LAN with static IP's, none of which now work because Google thinks I'm too stupid to be able to set my LAN IP address
    • More than that, you can also delegate administrator rights to other members of your household, so if you have roommates, for example, they too can configure a static IP or prioritize their device(s)
    • So, I ended up plugging the ON into my airport extreme, letting it DHCP via that and then configuring the static IP.
    • Advanced settings let you setup your internet connection, static IP routing, port
    • I put in a few tickets to customer support over the next couple days regarding setting up static IP's, port forwarding, changing IP addresses and other things
    • Set static IP routes, connect to a static DHCP, provide amazing wifi coverage, easy setup
    • You can work around this limitation via assigning the machines a static ip (router configuration based off of the machine's nic) and then adding that ip to /etc/hosts on the machines; but this is kind of a pia and fragile
