I am trying to set my SONOS specific to specific IP addresses.
The current SONOS IP addresses are 192.168.xx.100 to 192.168.xx.106 as assigned via the DHCP server.The revised SONOS IP addresses are to be 192.168.xx.200 to 192.168.xx.206.
While I am well aware as to how to assign / move a DHCP ASSIGNED IP address to a DHCP RESERVED IP address (as I have successfully done for other devices) it is not working for any of my SONOS devices.
While I was looking for solutions to this through the internet I noticed that the problem MAY BE that I have a SONOS Boost connected to 192.168.xx.100 with all other devices connected to the SONOS Boost per this article (see https://sonos.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3453/~/how-to-check-if-sonos-is-in-a-standard-or-boost-setup ). That is I noticed saw "WM: 0" for all devices. As I understand things this is likely the problem as the SONOS devices are getting there IP Addresses from the BOOST because they are connected to the BOOST (i.e. is this correct)?
With that, please explain how I should go about creating RESERVED IP addresses when using a SONOS Boost.
TIA!

No, the third element does not vary. I am writing XX just for privacy reasons.
Some routers require reserved addresses to be outside the permitted DHCP range. Others require it to be within. In the past I have just reserved the ones that DHCP had previously assigned. Have you tried that?
This is disturbing as my setup wont change the IP Address.
That said, any ideas or suggestions as to how best to proceed?
TIA

Why are you writing xx instead of a specific number in the third element? Does this vary?
No that is not correct. The Boost is not a router and does not allocate IP addresses. I don't know why you are having this problem as many Sonos users have used reserved IP addresses when in Boost mode, myself included.
