UI doesn't understand subnets

  1. My Computer from which I am connecting to the C8 hub has an IP address 10.50.164.198.
  2. The C8 currently has a DHCP adress of 10.50.165.163
  3. The Subnet is 10.50.164.0/23 (10.50.164.0-10.50.165.255)

But I cannot change to static IP because some programmer effed up the IP logic... At least give us a 'change anyway' option already!

Anyone have any ideas?

Its been brought up before and there is a solution to force anything you want in there.
The best thing to do is to just use a reserved IP on the router instead of a static configuration on the hub. I will see if I can find my post about forcing the IP if you really need to static setting.

@gopher.ny pinging to remind you of this bug.

This... :point_up: unless there is a very good reason why you can't/don't want to.

Thanks, that works. Still stupid that they do now include a subnet dropdown in the UI, but can't get the logic straight!
