SKY Fibre Pro Fixed IP

I been wondering if there is any setting change required for the 7800N to work with the now fixed SKY IP. The dynamic IP finds the static one and is assigned but I have had some drop out in wifi signal where internet connection is suddenly lost and then restored. I figured this may have something to do with the IP setting in the 7800n.

I've tried using a fixed IP setting populating the fields as best I can etc, IP, Gateway, DNS etc yet in fixed mode I get a green light but no internet on any device.

Any thoughts?

Thx Steve

Try using the fixed host option, found under DHCP server, once added, set your devices back to obtain a IP address automatically, and obtain a DNS server automatically.
