Can't change Power Hub local IP range

Hi, 

Finally got FTTP installed and working with the Vodafone Power Hub. I want to replace this with my own TP-Link ER605 router but haven't got that working yet.... In the meantime, I have many servers and IoT devices with static IPs in the 192.168.0.x range so would like to change the LAN IP range of the Power Hub to 192.168.0.xxx instead of the default 192.168.1.x. I can do this in the admin interface, but it doesn't work and the admin interface returns an nginx error page!!

Has anyone else managed to change the local IP address range?

Thanks, Tim

Are you absolutely sure it's the router giving the nginx error and not one of your servers? A screenshot of the error page with the address bar would help.

A link to an image host will be better than waiting for it to be moderated here - maybe do both.

Thanks. Yes, it's a 404 error from nginx which is evidently what's running on the Power Hub. At the moment my old network is still running (using Starlink and the ER605 router) entirely separately, so literally the only thing connected to the Power Hub is my phone by wifi. If I change the ip of the Power Hub to 192.168.0.1, the DHCP server range automatically updates as well (as you'd expect). But when the hub reboots, going to 192.168.0.1 gives the nginx error. I'll try to get a screenshot tomorrow!

Just to follow up, I've got my ER605 router working now (Vodafone gave me the wrong username the first time...) so the Power Hub is now stashed in a drawer where it belongs!
