Hi guys! I'm your brother Jiexiu, let's not talk about family affairs today, let's have some hardcore dry goods - how to set a static IP address for Wi-Fi on an Android phone. After all, in this era when everything can be connected, having a stable IP is like having a fixed parking space at the doorstep, which can save a lot of trouble of "grabbing a parking space" at a critical moment.
First of all, you may ask, "Brother Jiexiu, why do I need to set a static IP?" "Good question, just like you can always find your own parking space when you come home every day, a static IP ensures that your device gets the same IP address every time it connects to the same Wi-Fi, which is essential for some smart devices or network services that require a specific IP to work.
So, how does it work? Don't worry, Brother Jie Xiu will take you "one click three times", easy to get!
Step 1: [Exploration Tour] First enter the "Settings" menu of your phone, which is like a mysterious dungeon with many unknown treasures. Swipe the screen to find and tap the "Wi-Fi" icon and select the network you are connecting to or you intend to set a static IP address.
Step 2: [Deep Dig] After connecting to the Wi-Fi details page, you will find a small "More Options" button (some phones may display "Advanced Settings" in the shape of a gear), click on it boldly and think you are playing an escape room game to unlock hidden levels.
Step 3: [Treasure Chest] After successfully opening "Advanced Settings", you will be able to see the "IP Settings" or "Static IP" options, click to enter, you can manually enter the static IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and DNS server information you want to set. Remember, these numbers are like the latitude and longitude coordinates of your virtual world, make sure they match the range assigned by the router, otherwise it will become a "GPS loss".
If you don't know the exact number, you can consult your network administrator or refer to the DHCP settings in the background of the router. After entering, click Save, congratulations, the "Fixed Parking Space" has been successfully applied!
In case you find that after setting the static IP, the phone can't connect to the Internet, don't panic, it may be caused by IP conflict. In this case, you only need to readjust the unoccupied IP address. Therefore, the online world also pays attention to "first come, first served", which is similar to grabbing red envelopes in real life!
