    Assign Static IP Address in Windows 7

    • Tweet
    • Tweet

    If you have a home network with several computes and devices, it’s a good idea to assign each of them a specific address. If you use DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), each computer will request and be assigned an address every time it’s booted up. When you have to do troubleshooting on your network, it’s annoying going to each machine to figure out what IP they have.

    Using Static IPs prevents address conflicts between devices and allows you to manage them more easily. Assigning IPs to Windows is essentially the same process, but getting to where you need to be varies between each version.

      [..YouTube..] Great video. I think I may be experiencing that long term trouble you mentioned in the video. I am trying to assign a static IP address to my current connection of 192.168.0.2 (netgear) but when I try to assign this as a static IP address it keeps on saying that another connection already had this address. There are no other computers attached to my router? It does this for 192.168.0.2 thru to 15?

      [..YouTube..] No printers and no phone. I can connect via DCHP without any issues, but assigning a Static IP is an issue. Do you know of any way that I can reset all network connections to default in Windows 7 and try again from fresh in case there are any issues.
      Thanks for the reply by the way.
