Power cut. Sonos. Router. IP conflict

[mattyg]

Hiya folks

We sometimes suffer power cuts which whilst a pain in the backside its when the power comes back on that I have issues.
Mainly with my Sonos system and IP conflicts

How do I set up my system so it reserves certain mac/IP addresses

I'm sick of having to turn everything back off and start everything in a particular order just to get my Sonos working in my living room.

You could just configure DHCP reservation on the router. You just need the devices MAC addresses and then you tell the router to always give the same address to the same MAC.

Thats what I'm after.

Ok so is it easy to do I've got a Netgear WNdR4000
