Tablo won't use DHCP reservation

4 Tuner Tablo won’t accept a static IP address from my router, an Apple Airport Extreme. I’ve entered a reservation for my Mac and it accepts the static IP. I’ve triple checked that I have the correct MAC address and rebooted the Tablo and Airport several times, no luck.

Tablo is at version 2.2.16. The DHCP lease is set to 1 day but I’ve been trying this for 3 or 4 days.

Post screen grabs of the Tablo settings screen and the Airport Extreme config page.

That’s for port forwarding. The OP is having a problem with a DHCP reservation. Different issue.

Oops
You are correct sir here’s my DHCP screenshot

Fixed. I was entering the MAC address listed on the Tablo box and from the settings screen in my browser. I looked at the Hardware Address that the Airport was seeing and it was completely different. I plugged that into my DHCP reservations and the IP address is now correct.

Now on to remote access …

Ah. You were putting in the ethernet MAC address, but you’re connected to the AE via Wifi (which has a different address).
