In this Asus router, there is a box to type the IP address into and then a drop down menu for the MAC address. Here is an example of a router that allows you to manually assign IP addresses. For help logging in to your router visit our login guides. Login to your router (through your computer) and permanently assign your PlayStation 4 to the IP address you found in step 1. You should also write down your router's IP address which is listed as Default Gateway.Ģ.

Some routers allow you to manually assign an IP address, so you should check to see if that is an option in your router.

Assigning a permanent IP address to your PlayStation 4 ensures that your console always has the same internal IP address even after it is rebooted. You may need to assign a permanent IP address to your PlayStation 4 in order to get a NAT Type 2 connection. J(Last Updated: July 24, 2021) | Reading Time: 9 minutes
