A static IP address<\/a> is an address unique to a computer or device on a network. Unlike dynamic IP addresses<\/a>, which are assigned by the network and can change over time, a static IP address is fixed. A static IP address is beneficial for users who need remote access to their computer or device as it ensures that the address does not change and the connection remains secure. Setting up a static IP address is a simple process, but the exact steps may vary depending on your network configuration<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Why Set a Static IP Address<\/span><\/h2>\n

A static IP address is an address that is permanently assigned to a device on a network. This address is independent of the device’s physical location and is used when connecting to the network. The address is usually assigned to a device and never changes unless changed manually.<\/p>\n

Static IP addresses are beneficial when running a server<\/a> on a network as they ensure other devices always have access to the server. They also make it easier for network administrators<\/a> to access remotely since the address is always the same.<\/p>\n

You cannot usually buy a static IP address in a store. You can only get a static\/dedicated IP address from an internet service provider<\/a> (ISP) that offers dedicated connections. However, not all ISPs offer static\/dedicated internet access.<\/p>\n

Below, I will show you how to set up a static IP address on different operating systems.<\/p>\n

How To Set Up a Static IP Address on MacOS<\/span><\/h2>\n

Setting a static IP address on your Mac is a fairly simple process. Depending on your Mac’s operating system<\/a>, you can use either the Network page in System Preferences or the ‘networksetup’ command in Terminal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Follow these steps below to set a static IP address on your Mac:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Launch System Settings<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  2. Click on Network<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  3. Select the network connection you want to configure from the list on the right side of the window, such as Wi-Fi or Thunderbolt Bridge<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  4. After selecting the network, click on the Details<\/strong> button.<\/li>\n
  5. Click the TCP\/IP<\/strong> tab.<\/li>\n
  6. Set the Configure IPv4 option to Manually<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  7. Enter the static <\/strong>IP address<\/strong> provided by your ISP\/network administrator.<\/li>\n
  8. Enter the Subnet mask<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li>\n
  9. Enter the Router<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li>\n
  10. Click on DNS<\/strong><\/a> from the left sidebar, then click on the + icon<\/strong> and enter the DNS number<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  11. Click OK <\/strong>and then Apply<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Once you have applied the settings, you should be able to access the internet using the static IP address. If you are using a Mac with macOS Sierra or later, you can also use the ‘networksetup’ command in Terminal to set a static IP address:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Open Terminal and enter the following command: networksetup -listallnetworkservices<\/strong><\/li>\n
    2. Next command is: networksetup -setmanu<\/strong>al [SERVICE IP SUBNET ROUTER] <\/strong>(For Example: networksetup -setmanual Wi-Fi 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1<\/strong>)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Once you have entered the commands, you should be able to access the internet using the static IP address.<\/p>\n

      How To Set Up Static IP Address on Windows<\/span><\/h2>\n

      Setting up a static IP address on Windows<\/a> is a straightforward process. It requires access to the Windows Control Panel<\/a>, which can be accessed through the Start menu.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Start by opening the Control Panel<\/strong>. To do this, click the Start button<\/strong> and search for the Control Panel and open it. Now, select Network and Sharing Center<\/strong> from the list.<\/li>\n
      2. Under the View Your Active Networks<\/strong> section, select the network connection you want to modify. This will be either a wired connection (Ethernet cable) or a wireless connection (Wi-Fi).<\/li>\n
      3. Select Change Adapter Options<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
      4. Find the network adapter that you want to set a static IP address and right-click on it and select Properties<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
      5. Click on the Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP\/IPv4)<\/strong> option and select Properties<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
      6. In the General tab<\/strong>, select the Use the following IP address<\/strong> option.<\/li>\n

      8. Click OK<\/strong> to save the new settings and close the window.<\/li>\n
      9. Restart your computer<\/strong> to apply the new static IP address settings.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Your static IP address is now set. You can check the new settings by opening a command prompt<\/a> window and typing ‘ipconfig’. The IP address should now be the one you entered in the previous step.<\/p>\n
