Static Network configuration for wifi on UHD v8

Post by quinzico »

Is it possible to do a static Network configuration for wifi on UHD v8? i see that it gets the ip from the DHCP, but i need to do it manually. Is there such option on any release?

Yes, in all versions, but I don't recommend it, the best is DHCP

Why do you want the problematic static IP, if you want to improve the DNS do not use them, if rs for the issue of connecting outside the network it is not necessary, with the dynamic one the Gtshare list is connected outside from the local network

I need it because i dont want to use the normal gateway (the one given by dhcp) on the box, to go outside.I need to use a different gateway ip.

It is not necessary to put a fixed IP if in the router you have the option to forward port, it is the simplest and most efficient

I dont want to do any port forwarding, I want to use a different GW address than what DHCP is sending. So basically, all the traffic to and from the box must be sent to a different GW,

That exactly does port forwarding with DHCP
If the router does not have the option, you must do it by fixed IP

Hi Caje,

port forwarding is to allow the router to pass outside traffic to a specific port, to an internal IP address.

Thats is not what i want. I want my box to use another GW router from the network to reach the internet. My box should be able to use any port.

I dont understand how you say that the port FW does it.
