You can do this but only via telnet:

How do I fix a DHCP allocation ?
If you are using the DHCP server facility on the router, you may need to
fi=
x
an allocation so that the same client (PC) always gets the same IP address.
You can do this from the router's Telnet interface with the following
synta=
x
: srv dhcp fixip add <IP Address> <MAC Addr> <HostID>

The IP address is specified in dotted octets, e.g. 192.168.1.100 and the
MA=
C
address in six hex octets, e.g. F0-DE-DB-10-12-71

You can delete assignments with the del command, for example :

srv dhcp fixip del 192.168.1.123

The 'clr' command will clear all set values.

I bought a 2600+ last week after a couple of recommendations here=20
and I already have an seperate AP for the reasons that Andy says.=20
Seems to be a really solid unit but still getting to grips with a=20

MAC addresses.
