Hello! How can I configure a static IP Wi-Fi? I could do it on the android, but on wp7 it`s impossible. Now in settings my Wi-Fi I have the opportunity to introduce DNS and DNS2 only, but can not enter a statiŃ IP, router IP and Subnet Mask
How can i do this?

My configuration is two routers, one as the gateway, and another as a client bridge (bridged wireless-ly - obviously). I have 1 computer after the bridge with IP 192.168.1.8 (static). When my MDA is on, it grabs that same IP address as the other computer. I can surf the outside world, but when I try to access my other computer, it's hosed.
any ideas?
Not sure if this matters, but I've got DD-WRT (linux) on both routers.
Other laptops used connect fine and are assigned they're own IP.

Set the IP to either outside the dynamic IP pool range or give another static IP.
Yeah, what subzero5 said. Either change the static IP to one out side of your DHCP range or if your DHCP is set for the full subnet then change your dhcp range to a smaller one. Say 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.150. In most cases you don't need your DHCP so large. Some routers are defaulted to use the entire subnet which is 255 host addresses. Also make sure that dhcp isn't enabled on both routers.
In the past I would successfully set an Wi-Fi ad-hoc network between my PC (WinXP) and my phone (WM 6.1, Omnia) and shared my PC's internet connection to the phone. The PC used to get an IP 192.168.0.1 and in 20-30 seconds phone used to get an IP in the range 192.168.0.x and the phone successfully received internet from the PC's shared LAN connection. Both the PC and the device were configured to automatic IP address.
But sometimes (like now) I decide to change the wireless network connection's IP to Automatic (because I like automatic settings) and both PC and phone get IP in the range 169.254.x.x (after long waiting) and the phone doesn't have internet. If I manually change the Wireless Network Connection's IP (on the PC side) to 192.168.0.1, then the device gets the right IP (in the range 192.168.0.x) and everything is fine; it has internet.
The question is why when devices are set to automatic IP addresses they do not get the right ones - 192.168.0.x and the phone doesn't have internet.
EDIT: Ok, today I solved my problem. I found out that re-disabling and again re-enabling the internet connection sharing on the broadband LAN changes the IP setting of the wireless network connection from automatic to manual and sets manual IP 192.168.0.1 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and everything is fine. So if I change the wireless network connection's IP to automatic obviously I won't have internet and I either have to change it back to manual and enter 192.168.0.1 and subent 255.255.255.0 OR I have to re-disable and then re-enable internet connection sharing and this changes the wi-fi's IP to manual and sets it to (again) 192.168.0.1 and subnet 255.255.255.0
Hi All
been struggling with this issue for a while.
I am connecting my Samsung Galaxy S based Android GingerBread 2.3.2 to a complexed LAN Environment
the DHCP server has a SuperScope:
while the DHCP server is in a 100.100.0.0/24
it gives IP addresses in 100.100.1.0/24
I.E.:
IP 100.100.1.75
SM 255.255.255.0
GW 100.100.0.254
while by default it wont allow browsing A Cisco router allowing the device to route between subnets and to the web through the Router (GW)
It is working just fine for many PC's, Macs and Iphones.
After connecting with Wifi , and recieving an IP address I cannot reach anything out of my 100.100.1.0/24 subnet
If i set a static IP in 100.100.0.0/24 (say 100.100.0.75) it will function perfectly.
I know Iphones had this problem in OS 3.x.x and it was solved in OS 4.x.x
I can modify anything i want in the DHCP server or in the Android device
Any Idea anyone?
Where this option can be changed?
Hi liderzre,
I don't think it can be done on the phone.
But you should be able to set your router to give the phone a Static IP.
Most routers can do this by linking the MAC Address to an IP.

This router is semi-public. I have no access in router options . But thanks.
When attempting to set up a static IP, via a cable connection, even after the fields are filled out, the option to save is greyed out. The fields are slightly different from the wifi static IP options. The connection is working with DHCP. The options are:
IP ADDRESS: 192.168.0.166
NETMASK: 24
DNS: 208.67.222.222
DEFAULT ROUTER: 192.168.0.1
So already you can see its odd compared to the more standard wifi options -only 1 nameserver can be used? These settings work no problems for wifi - but wifi settings also have the subnet mask and two nameservers.
Is it something I'm doing wrong? I've not used ethernet on a phone before. Otherwise, I'll report it to Samsung.
