Hi Shelleyt1. To set up port forwarding in the Cox Panoramic Wifi app, you will need to access the advanced settings, tap on the Connect tab, then See Network. From the My Network screen, tap Advanced Settings. The following options display which is located in www.cox.com/.../cox-panoramic-wifi-app-features.html. Thanks, Lisa Cox Support Forums Moderator

    Those are the settings to to port forwarding. OP asked how to reserve a IP address. Do you have those settings in the app by any chance?

      I think the only way to reserve an IP address is the change the address list from starting at 192.168.0.2 to something like 192.168.0.10, so you can manually assign the ip addresses 2-9 to specific devices in their network settings.

        so you can manually assign the ip addresses

        Eew. That sounds like a pain. Some many other routers make it easy to assign a IP based on MAC address in the DHCP settings. I was hoping the gateway had something like that.
