How HOT Does it Get?

Can you just do that on the router’s webpage?

You sure can. Here, I’ll save you some searching around:

Sign in to Verizon router. Click Advanced tab (almost top right). Click yes to proceed. Click IP Address Distribution bottom right. Click Connection List almost in the middle. On the left, find the device that you want to assign a static lease IP address to. On the right, in the Action column, click the Edit icon. Tick the Static Lease Type box. Click Apply. That is now a static IP address. GO back one page and look in the Lease Type column. It will show you the Static designation.

I did some poking around and discovered an easier way to set a static IP for the Pi, although it’s not permanent.

How long does the new static IP address last if it isn’t permanent?

@1m2 By the way, what kind of case is that, and where could I get one for myself?

I tried to find out how long the lease lasts for but I was unable to discover that information. The word “temporary” appeared somewhere when I was doing the initial search for assigning static IP’s. That is why I noted that the change wasn’t permanent.

Worst case scenario if the leases expire: Go back to that one page in your router. A few clicks. Leases renewed.

Best case scenario: They don’t expire (or last a very long time)

@Mykle1 Nice! I’ll figure it out.
