Default MN-700 in Access Point Mode: Use Specific IP Address?



OK, here's another question: When you set an MN-700 into Access Point
mode, is it possible to force it to use a specific IP address? I have 2
MN-700s: the main one, which is connected to my cable modem, is
192.168.1.1. I want the second MN-700, which is set in Access Point
mode, to be 192.168.1.2, but it keeps getting a DHCP address
(192.168.1.136) from the first MN-700. Is there any way to force the
second MN-700 to be 192.168.1.2?

Thanks for any assistance.

With the MN700's there is no way to manually assign an ip address when it is
in bridge mode. It will expect to find a DHCP server and get an ip via that
means.
