WRT610N & Static IP?

I've been running at WRT54g with no issues using my static IP on Comporium with a Arris Cable Modem (TM402G/11). I want to do some HD streaming so I'm trying to upgrade to wireless N and bought a WRT610N... the static IP setup screen is pretty much identiical to the 54g, so I figured this would be a snap... no such luck. I lost a day trying to make this work and then after 2 hours on the phone with support, replaced it with a new model (support citing hardware problems). The replacement has the exact same behavior.
I can never get out to the net.... I cannot ping an external IP address at all. DHCP issues an address just fine. Internal network commuicaiton works fiine. I've check and double checked my static IP and DNS settings. I'm running the latest firmware (came installed). I've re-flashed the firmware. I can unplug the internet cable from th e610 and stick it in the 54g (same static settings) and it works fine.
Is there something with the 610 I need to do that I'm missing?
The only thing I can figure it some type of incompaitibility with the Arris Cable Modem.... I'm stumped and don't know what else to do by return this thing.
Thanks,
Reed

Well you might be receiving low wireless signal strength on your computer, due to the Default Wireless Settings set on your Router....
Login to the Router setup page and click on the Wireless tab... and below select the Option "Manual Configration" and below change the - Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbors network...
- Set the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

Can I set 1 laptop wireless connect with static IP to WRT610N?

I have a WRT610N with 3 PCs wired and various wireless devices accessing. 1 of the wireless devices, running Windows 7, needs to run a static IP. Do/Can I set this up in the router or do I need to do in the PC?

You can use DHCP reservation in the router to assign a fixed IP address to the PC.
Or you can set the static IP address on the PC directly.

WRT610N - Need to Set Static IP for Server and Port Forwarding

Does anyone know how I can assign a static IP for my Home Media Server in the WRT610N router? I need to do this because of the settings I need to set for the server in the Single Port Forwarding.
Thanks in advance!

Never mind. I got it.

Optus ADSL2+ and WRT610n Quick Guide to setting up.

Hi all fellow Optus (australian isp) ADSL2+ and Linksys users,
I have a quick guide to setting up your new WRT610n with the optus supplied ADSL2+ Speedstream 4200 modem. This should solve most users problems with no internet connections, firewall rules not appearing to work properly etc.
It took me several hours of stuffing around and online researching untill I got these two to work together and have full firewall funtionality!
First up.... DON'T USE the LELA to setup the router! For some unknown reason, the laptop I used to setup the router, was configured by LELA to be a proxy and gateway, and unless that laptop was on.... the router wasn't passing info through it and back out to the internet! A full Reset of the Router was needed to clear this setting!
Now Lets get started.
BEFORE inserting the router into the network and connecting everything up, we need to reconfigure the Speedstream modem to FULL BRIDGE mode. NOTE! this will infuture disable the Web interface to the DSL modem, so changing to FULL BRIDGE mode should be the last thing you do to the modem before logging out. A full hard reset (little button) will restore the web functionality again should you need to put it back to normal.
1) Setting Speedstream 4200 to Full Bridge mode - This is necessary for the Modem to fully pass on ALL of the ISP settings. Such as correct gateway info, DNS info, "REAL" online IP address (not the generic psuedo 10.x.x.x number) etc.
- To do this, open your web client, Internet Explorer or similar. And enter the IP address 10.1.1.1
- Feel free to look around the settings of the modem but don't change anything just yet. Wouldn't be a bad idea to take screenshots of all the settings pages now like I did should I need to return it to original settings.
- The Webpage of the modem will open up and click on PPP - Take note (as in write this down!) of your "PPPoE 8/35" type which you'll select in the router later, and your Username for optus logon and password (you should know that or go looking for that paperwork that has your username and password that came with your optus Modem installer CD). You will enter all this login info in the router later as the router will do the logging in and take over from the modem!
- Next, click on Mode - You will see 3 options. For most, it will currently be on Optus Bridge. This mode enables a router inside the modem and is now to be replaced by the new Linksys you just bought. By Changing this to FULL BRIDGE mode, you essentially disable the modems internal router and turn it into a dumb modem (like the good old days of dumb dial up modems yey!)
- When you've changed to FULL BRIDGE mode, it will tell you the Web interface is now disabled. Close the window. And lets get to configuring the router.
2) Plugging everything in time!
- The Speedstream 4200 ADSL2+ Modem stays plugged into the wall as normal, but the LAN cable which used to go to your computer now plugs into the WAN port of the router.
- Plug the PC into one of the LAN ports of the Router also.... or if like me, you have a Switch that all the PC's use, plug that into the router.
3) Setting up the WRT610n (or similar linksys router)
- Open Internet Explorer/Firefox and enter the IP Address of the Router (Fresh install IP is 192.168.1.1)
- Username is "admin" and password is "admin" (you'll want to change this later I'm sure)
- OK now your in! We need to setup the internet account settings.
- Setup-Basic Setup page:- Internet Connection Type will be what you saw in the modem PPP page (you did write that down didn't you?). For me, I select PPPoE.
- The enter my optus username info and password
- click on Keep Alive (30 Secs).
- Then click Save Settings at the very bottom of the webpage.
It will likely ask to reboot.... let it do so
Now at this point:
- Your modem should have always been in Sync
- Your LAN IP from the WRT610n should be in the 192.168.1.100+ range? (I changed this later to put my IPs back in the 192.168.0.100+ range so I didn't have to reconfigure static PC's or printers around my network)
- Your Router should have reset about now and hopefully logged onto the internet through the modem.
To check all is working fine. Open the Routers webpage again and click on Status. Under the Internet Connection area, Click connect if it hasn't already connected for ya. This page should auto-refresh.
Check that the connection says Connected and that the IP addresses given in all the fields appear to be internet addresses (ie not 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x etc). If not, check that the status lights on the modem are all correct (you know how it should look when it's ok).
Open IE or firefox and check that you have internet!
It's important to make sure that the Internet IP Address in the Status page matches the one you get from http://www.whatismyip.com/. Because if it doesn't, then the Router isn't truely at the front of the Internet-Lan boundary. If this is the case, you may still have internet working ok, but the firewall portforwards may not work as seen in other forum posts around the net.
If it's OK, then Grab a Beer and Celebrate, you've just saved yourself 6 hours of hair pulling frustration!
SUCCESS!
Now, if your so inclined.... I would highly recommend changing Admin passwords, adding security to your Wireless connections, changing your DHCP to something your comfortable with or just leave them alone if everyone is server assigned IP's. I find it's a good idea to use the DHCP Mac reservation in the basic setup so I know each PC will get the same IP each time it logs into the router and thus makes Portforwarding SOOoooo much easier knowing the IPs don't change on you when the IP lease time expires if the PC has been offline too long.
Please feel free to comment on this, I'm pretty sure 99% apart from grammar is correct! Hope it helps many new and old users.
Have a brilliant day! and may the force be with you!

Can't I use a WRT610N as a bridge or AP?

Inherited this WRT610N from someone, and want to deploy it in a preexisting LAN (172.21.1.x) with a pre-existing DHCP server.
Can I use the "Internet" port if I assign it static IP on my LAN, and create a new DHCP scope (192.168.1.x) for Wireless clients?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

1. You cannot use the WRT610N as wireless bridge. The WRT won't connect wireless to other access points.
2. You can set up the WRT the way you have suggested. This will create to separated LANs. Your existing LAN won't be able to access the WRT LAN, but the WRT LAN can access your main LAN.
3. You can set up the WRT the way you have suggested and turn off NAT on the WRT if your main router is able to NAT additional IP subnets other then its own LAN subnet (i.e. you can tell your main router to NAT 192.168.1.* addresses). WIth NAT disabled on the WRT you have to add a static route for 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 to the static IP address of your WRT in your 172.21.1.* network. In addition, computers in your existing LAN should either have the same static route installed or the computers should accept ICMP redirects from your main router. With this setup, the WRT LAN is routed from your main LAN, i.e. computers are able to connect to each other. But it's still a separated broadcast domain which means things like standard Windows workgroup name resolution won't work as that is based on LAN broadcasts.
4. You can set up the WRT as simple access point and ethernet switch. Leave the internet settings on DHCP. Set a LAN IP address inside your main LAN 172.21.1.*, subnet mask the same as your existing LAN (if possible). Switch off the DHCP server on the WRT. Now connect one of the LAN ports of the WRT to your existing LAN. Do not use the internet port of the WRT. Now you have connected the AP inside the WRT directly into your LAN bypassing all the routing functions of the WRT. You only have a single LAN now and everything can connect to everything else in your LAN.

WRT610N router and a WET610N wireless bridge problems

I purchased a WRT610N router and a WET610N wireless bridge and have had a major hard time to get them to work together. The router setup went fine. Internet works perfectly on several machines and devices. The bridge on the other hand has been a big issue. I keep getting "Error 105" when the wizard trys to search for the bridge on the network. This search happens 2 or 3 times during the setup, and it has failed repeatedly at each instance. Sometimes it lets me go a bit further, but it's never completed. I called support, and they didn't know much about it, then we got disconnected and the second guy didn't "have the skills to work with that device" and the first guy appearantly didn't update the notes. I exchanged the bridge, but the second has fared no better. I'm now thinking it might be the router. One thing that leads me to that is the connection button never seems to initiate any proceedures on the router. I can hold that thing down for two minuets and the lights never get going. Anyone have any experience with these?

You have to make sure that your router is running it's latest firmware...
Download Firmware 7.27 MB...
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave the username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful" After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
Now reset your router :
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
After re-configuring the router you need to configure the Bridge, to configure the Bridge you have to make sure, Wireless Settings on the Bridge and the Router are exactly identical so that they can effectively communicate with each other...Your Bridge should be assigned Static IP Address of 192.168.1.250, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0...Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1(Assuming your router is 192.168.1.1)...After setting up your Bridge you should unplug the Router and then the Bridge, wait for a minute and connect the router first, wait for another minute and then connect your Bridge...It should work...

WRT610N Loses Internet connection, does not respond - with HP Mediasmart HomeServer plugged in

OK - this makes no sense to me - and I consider myself somewhat technical.   Hopefully it will make sense to someone else.
I have a new WRT610N v2 (2.00.00.B05) with 3-6 computers (Vista, W7) attached wired and wireless to them at any point in time. I also have an HP Mediasmart EX470 (Windows Homeserver) attached to the network to back them all up. Everything worked great with a WRT54G - but I wanted Gigabit.
Every moring since I got the router, I found it completely unresponsive - all lights on, all systems with IP addresses, etc. - but the router was not communicating with the Internet - and it would not connect newly booted computers, etc.
This happened with my original v1 - so I had it replaced - and I replaced my cable modem as well. I now have an Ambit uc1018.80.
Rather than pushing the reset button today and going through the reconfig process; I tried unplugging network cables to see if it would have an effect.  I unplugged the homeserver - and my cable modem "send" light flashed - I was connected (I could browse, etc.) I plugged it back in - and everything went dead - no more send light on the cable modem - and no more internal network traffic either.
I rebooted the homeserver - and everything now works - until, I expect, the next night. The homeserver is a HP EX470 Mediasmart with a memory upgrade (2gb) and a processor upgrade (AMD 1640). It is running Windows Home Server Powerpack 3 (HP Update 1.2.1) with the following addons (PacketVideo PVConnect 4.4.4, Microsoft Homeserver Toolkit 1.1 (6.0.1800.0); and McAfee Total protection 5.0.0.648-patch003). I do not have remote access settings configured.
The homeserver is configured to backup all computers on the network overnight - most of the time they complete successfully - last night one of them failed.
The homeserver has a SiS191 1000/100/10 adapert running at 1000 (DHCP) driver version 2.0.1039.1070 dated 12/20/2006. I am going to look for a newer driver - but it does not make sense that one computer can render a router unresponsive - does it? Any ideas?
Thanks....

Here's an update - it looks like it might have somewith to do with DHCP and IPv6....
Testing steps taken - notice that changes in ipconfig/all output is IPv6 related...
1. Router set to factory defaults and re-configured.
2. All systems rebooted and connected to router.
3. All works well for several hours.
4. Cable Modem send light goes out - all network access from client computers ceases.
5. WHS cable disconnected from router - all client network traffic starts working and continue to work for several days without WHS connected.
6. IPconfig of Vista SP2 client computer taken:

11. Unplug WHS server cable from router - for network stability until this issue is fixed.
I know very little about IPv6 - but this looks like it is IPv6 related - is it? Any ideas as to next steps?
Note:
1. I can't remove IPV6 from all clients - the configuration of one client computer is not under my control.
2. I am thinking of either setting the WHS server to a static IP address - or enabling IPv6 on it - but it would be great to be working from a position of knowledge that blindly trying things...any isight would be appreciated...
Thanks,

Wrt610N please help ps3 remote play and also nothing sees the 5ghz band

I have finaly hooked everything up last night. I have everyything on mac filter and static IP address. Questions is though I would like to have my laptop D-link extreme N adapter and my ps3 on the 5ghz band. Can I do this... cause Im looking in the settings and it says Mixed,, N only, A only.... I thought it could do G also.... PLease explain there...I cant even get my laptop adapt to see the 5ghz band! Weird.... Also Im trying to get my ps3 on the best connection possible.. I would like to also have remote play through the net. Heres my problem... I enable it on the ps3 turn off the system.....and about 1 or 2 minutes it turns on by itself... IT does this quiete frequently... Again I have a wrt610N dual band wireless router. I thought I read somewhere if you change the broadcast channel it will help with the remote play..so I placed it on channel 11 and also placed the ps3 in the dmz... I am away from my home so I will try more out later...I woudl like to take the ps3 out of dmz if possible... I have unup enabled. THanks!!

Beside doing DMZ for your PS3, you better Open the Ports for your PS3 on your Linksys Router. TCP Ports: 10070 - 10080, UDP Ports: 50000 ,UDP Ports: 6000-7000, 10070. This will solve your Problem.

WRT610N Configuration: blocking all UDP connections

Hi all,
I am the disapointed owner of the WRT610N. I previously had a buffalo N routeur in the UK, which had no firmware update in 9 months, and plenty of spelling mistakes and problems (router hanging, needed to reset). I managed to refund it and I paid nearly 200 pounds for that WRT610n.
I can see the potential of such router, but with that price range and the many problems, it is a complete failure. I noticed many people complaining exactly the same way about that router, which is simply too expensive for the amount of problems it is encountering.
This is not about blindly giving a critic about that router which certainly has some strenghts and potential, but it has been overpriced for the problems in progress. It looks like a "beta".
The latest firmware (1.10?) released early 2009 has corrected a few problems (ftp and USB stick works better, the "wifi protected setup" does turn off properly in 2.4ghz mode, etc...) but still some remains such as that "wifi protected setup" from hell that keep asking me the code on the 5GHZ frequency when I use my intel 4965agn with it, even when I turned that feature off in the router config.
Anyway my current "problem" is I want to block the flatmate from using all UDP connections, simply because she floods the network with that.
But it does not seems to works at all: I went to access restriction, created and enabled one entry with her IP.
Then, I created an application name (blockUDP) and port 1 to 59 999, then I added it to the right side (Blocked List).
It does not seems to work as when I run a "wireshark" I can still see packets coming in/out of that IP address.
Ideally i would also like her to use only basic internet (port 80) because she keeps downloading/uploading with no limits, and telling her to stop does not make her change. She pretends being not guilty and show advance signs of retardness. For example, we all complained about downloading, and this person gave the wireless password to her friends leaving nearby... Of course they are now blocked, password changed and she will never have it but...
I understood to block from all (TCP, UDP...) from "1 to 79" and from "81 to 59999": Again it does not seems to work as in wireshark I see traffic.
She only have 1 "nic", the wired cable. No wireless.
Thanks in advance!

To accomplish what you need will take more than this router can offer. I would recommned you use the QOS feature and make her last place even to ping another note to keep in mind is you might want to set her up on a static ip.
Under Access restrictions is where i would be lookin to accomplish what you need. Just a little advice if you want her to have just port 80 access and possibly 443 if she access her email online most are secured.
Now make sure the policy is enabled and also make sure that the spi firewall is enabled under the security tab. Also she might be running P2P software since i am not aware of to many desktop apps that use UDP as a protocol
Also almost forgot to mention is wireshark will see all traffic originating internally so if her computer is broadcasting wireswhark will see it, what you need to pay attention too is if the router is actually forwarding her traffic threw it's WAN interface.

Howto combine TWO WRT610N's on my Network?

I know this has gotta be possible SOMEHOW, but I can't seem to figure it out. Below is a picture of my setup that I am running at my house. I basically have two of everything. Two internet connections going into dual WRT610N's and then one going to my web server and the other going to my Desktop. What I want to know is HOW can I bridge the two networks so that I can access files locally between each computer? Obviously if I had the web server and the desktop hooked into just ONE WRT610N then I would be able to locally access files between the two computers on the LAN connection. But right now since they are on seprate connections, I am unable to do this. Any ideas?

You need a third router which routes between both WRTs and you have to run wires from both WRTs to this router. Then you have to use different subnets on both WRTs, e.g. 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 and 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0. The third router will transfer traffic between those subnets. You have to setup static routes on the web server and desktop to send traffic for the other LAN subnet through the third router and not through the WRT.

Trying to add a WRT610n to my home network. When I try to connect to the router from my XP desktop with a CAT5 cable it does not see it. Was able to connect from my Vista laptop both with a CAT 5 and wirelessly. Changed the router IP address to 192.168.2.1 as instructed by tech support. Desktop still does not see the router. Connect desktop to Westell wireless modem/router with a CAT 5 - no problem. Also connected the desk top to a regular router no problem..
Got no help from tech support - was told that it's not their problem so it must be a computer hardware problem. If it was a hardware issue with my computer then why didn't I have a problem with the other two routers?
I am sure it is a configuration problem but I can not get any support for Linksys? Any ideas?

Well you need to assign the static DNS to the pc in the range of the new lan ip 192.168.2.1 & you will be able to go online wired & wirelessly.

WRT610N, WET610N, XBOX, Windows Media Center Setup

I've searched the heck out of these forums and others. Most of the posts regarding connection problems between the Xbox and Windows Media Center using the WRT610N are fairly old and seem unresolved. I fear the people that had the problem have either solved it, and didn't return to post the solution or worse, gave up and returned their router.
I have the WRT610N V2 and I'd like to know if I can reliably use it with my xbox before the opportunity to exchange it ends. I've always been a fan of Linksys. But I am not inclined to suffer this degraded performance.  Is there a recommended WRT610N setup for reliable performance with the Xbox?
Yes, this is the second time I've asked the question here. But I got nothing on my first and suspected the subject didn't draw enough or the right attention. Please help. I really don't want to give up on Linksys.

Follow up to the situation.
Keep in mind that most of the suggestions regarding the 610n and the Xbox 360 problems are pretty old and I believe related to V1 of the router. The lack of response I've gotten lead me to believe these suggestions were not applicable to V2. But rest assured, I'm not imagining this problem.  The connection from the Xbox and WMC is inconsistent at startup, halts occasionally, and hiccups in streaming music pretty regularly.
I have really only tested in the few hours I have available on weeknights. I don't have the time to completely rearrange the network configuration every evening to try all of the suggestions I've read. Especially since I can't change much on the adapter remotely. I have to pull out my equipment rack, pull the power plug out of the surge protector to bring it into the office where the desktop computer is to reconfigure it. Because of this, I have been hesitant to make a lot of changes hoping that someone would post the "no shyt solution".
What's really got me is that since buying this router just this past weekend (at BestBuy by the way) I've had such varying results with little configuration change.  Sunday I got everything up just fine, but had hiccups in the streaming music. Monday I had to power down everything to get the xbox to connect to WMC and I switched to static IPs at that time. Once connected, I had the hiccups in the streaming music using WMC and LastFM. Then on Tuesday evening, I still had the hiccups. Then on Wednesday night, everything worked perfectly (both WMC and LastFM). But I hadn't changed anything since the hiccups on Tuesday night. I thought maybe the router needed time to settle in? Yeah, pretty crazy notion given we're talking about networking. If it's going to work, you'd think it would work right off the bat or not work.  So Thursday night, last night, the hiccups were back (both WMC and LastFM). And they seemed worse than ever before.
I would like to note that I have frequently tested the alternative method of streaming music with the xbox that uses the Windows Media Player vice Windows Media Center. That capability has had no problem at any time.  The WMC is a more pleasant and richer interface but I didn't have a WMC capable computer before. So in a pinch, I can continue using the WMP interface if I'm entertaining and haven't gotten this WMC thing worked out. But I had the WMP interface with my old Linksys G equipment. I just spent a fair dollar to gain N and WMC, I feel I have wasted my money if I have to drop back to the WMP interface.
Anyway, back to results... I'm off today and figured I'll try some of the suggestions. This morning initially, the xbox will connect with WMC, but won't maintain the connection. This is before I even fire up any music. So, here I am again scanning the Linksys forum for the suggestions. I figure I'll try the recommendations that don't require me to pull the WET610N into my office for reconfiguration. Ok, so a few easy recommendations (mind you, these were all provided for the V1, I haven't read anything particular to the V2), is to change the Beacon Interval to 50, Fragmentation and RTS Thresholds to 2306 and 2307 respectively. So far, that's all I've done, and of course powered the router and adapter down.
Everything is working perfectly. Am I convinced I have a solution? No. As I've read and in my own experience, things in this router change day to day. What works today might not work tomorrow.
So if there is anyone out there that is familiar with this problem, your insight would be invaluable to me!

WRT610N to TP-LINK SWITCH cannot ping printer on switch

I hope you can tell me what I have done wrong.
dslmodem ---> wrt610N ---->TP-LINK(5port) ---- HP 2600N printer, another to IOmega HD
I cannot see either the printer nor the HD. I cannot ping them.
The cables from the TP to the printer are blue, CAT5 cables. Does blue mean twisted pair?
The HP and IOmega have static IP addresses at 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3 each.
The DHCP settings on the router allocate DHCP from 100-254 to avoid conflicts.
The firewall on the WRT610N is disabled.
Physical limitations permit only one CAT5 cable to the TPLINK box.
If I avoid the box and do this;
dslmodem ---> wrt610N ---->HP 2600N printer
I can ping it from both a Windows 7 and/or XP machine.
However, with the switch in place, I cannot ping it from the router nor any PC's connected to it. The PCs can ping each other.
Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thank you in advance.

The device is a TPLINK TL-SF1005D unmanaged 5 port switch. No visible settings or buttons.
The address handed out on other side of the TPLINK is 169.254.138.233
My network is 192.168.1.*
Hmm. This does not bode well.
Should I set up a routing table entry to talk to this switch?
The wire from the router is hooked to port 1 on the switch. Should it not pick up the right submask, entry from the router?
Thanks for all your help?

How To Create Static IPs On My Network

How do I setup "static" IPs for my home network equipment?
My network IPs run from 192.168.2.100 thru 192.168.2.149.
Currently I have the following equipment on my network (all are working well):
Wired Desktop running Windows XP Pro
Wireless Laptop running Windows Vista
Wireless Laptop running MAC 10
Wired XBox 360
Wired Linksys Network Media Hub (NMH410)
My setup includes:
Network Magic version 5.5.9195.0 Platform 11.2.9195.1
Westell 6100F Modem
Verizon DSL
Linksys WRT610N Version 1 Router

Likely just an issue with the router you have. I have an ActionTec Q1000 rented from ISP - it does the same thing. Static IPAs versus dynamic ones won't help you.
Prior to its untimely death, a 2-Wire 2701HG-D router, also rented from the ISP before they replaced it with the Q1000, was robust enough to be able to resolve LAN hostnames to LAN IPAs. But no more.... Manually associating the hostname to the IPA in the Q1000's config pages does nothing.
So I bet you are just seeing the same lack of robustness in your router.
If worried about DHCP changing the IPA of a device, setting up a range of static and a range of dynamic IPAs in the router will help. The router should have a section in its config pages to "enable DHCP." In there, there is likely a place where you can define a range of DHCP addresses. Anything outside that range but within the subnet mask would be available for static assignment. For example, suppose your subnet is 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.255 (subnet mask 255.255.255.0). IF you declare your DHCP pool to be 192.168.0.128-192.168.0.254, then 192.168.0.2-192.168.0.127 will be available for static IPA assignment (I am assuming the router has assigned 192.168.0.1 to itself).
With the Macs, then, as you probably know, this is set in  > Sys Prefs > Network > {interface} Advanced > TCP/IP. I usually choose configure "using DHCP with manual address." That saves me having to enter subnet mask and router IPA. But you could just as easily use "manually." Printers and other devices, you'd have to refer to their user guides.

ISP provides Static IP and requires website login/password to connect

How do I setup my WRT610N router configuration for this situation? My ISP requires that I connect to their website and enter a login and password. Afterwards I have to open a new browser window to surf the net, and leave the original open.

Well you can input the static on your Router... But beside static IP address your ISP required a Username and Password Authentication.... Well i dont think its possibel... May be in this case you can call your ISP and they will change the configuration settings on their Modem.....
As your Router will accept only 1 mode of Authentication,, Static IP or PPPoE or DHCP.
