I bought this because I have AT&T static IP and wanted to make use of it

Initial setup requires you to connect your computer to port eth0 and use a static IP on your PC in the 192.168.1.0 subnet other than 192.168.1.1

Here at work, configured for a static IP address, which by itself was not easy, but there are straightforward instructions in the Ubiquii help.

After searching and reading forums, I tried to set a static IP to .100

The method to setting up static IP addresses makes little to no sense in my opinion.

Static IP setup was interesting but I did it

I even had to tweak the static IP address to finally connect to the ER-X.

Initial setup requires a static IP address be set on the computer to talk to the ER-X.

I set the IP address to the first static IP address in my range and set the EdgeRouter to use the 2wire att router to route out to the internet using the last static IP that AT&T gave me.2) NOTE that when they ask for an IP address, you should type in the IP address you want the router to be at, not the base IP address for the network

Amazing device for the price; taking one star off because of a very bad glitch affecting the latest two firmware versions (site-to-site IPSEC tunnels from a dynamic public IP to a FQDN are broken)

Once initially connected but before configuring, I tried to update the firmware to the latest release...and discovering how to do it was a nice learning adventure...but once updated, I had the same problems in connecting to the ER-X as before until I again set a low static IP address needed for initial configuration

Full five star rating:For $50 you get business class features, which for sure shall cost at least $500 if you were to buy from any known brands.-Multiple public static IP handling-VLAN with intra VLAN accessibility-QOS-Port bridging-Separate DHCP for each VLAN

I finally realized my static IP address for setup was for the second LAN on port 0.

Having a more complicated network setup I did have a little more of a task configuring some static ip's and port mapping.

I love how easy it is to assign static ip addresses for devices

Worked flawlessly right out of the box, I used the wizard to it up and only had to make slight configuration changes to setup address pools in the correct IP range and reserve static routes

I wanted my computer on LAN 2 (port 2) but could not get that to work until I finally remembered to change from a static IP address to using DHCP.

You need to set a static IP in 192.168.1.0/24 and then can connect over eth0 to the web ui or ssh/telnet to configure

I couldn't connect to the router at all during that time, even setting a static IP and trying all ports and power cycling it a few times

The instructions tell you to set a static IP on your computer, plug into port 1 (not port 0) and bring up the EdgeOS interface through a browser.

Also used a Linux server as a router with hundreds of customers using terabytes of data and static IP's and it was ROCK SOLID.
