Windows 10: Set a static IP address (4 methods) – Also works in 2024
In Windows 10, a static IP address is a recommended configuration for many scenarios, such as sharing files, printers, media, and other services.
If the device does not have a static IP address, the services will eventually stop working. Usually, this is because computers connected to a network get their Internet Protocol (IP) address configuration from the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, which is dynamic and temporary.
Normally, you would assign a static IP address using Windows 10 settings, but you can also use router settings to set the dynamically assigned network configuration from the DHCP server as a static configuration.
