Static Ip Address

sudo leafpad /etc/dhcpcd.conf
Scroll all the way to the bottom of the file and add one, or both of the following snippets. Depending on whether you want to set a static IP address for a wired connection or a wireless connection eth0 = wired, wlan0 = wireless. You’ll need to edit the numbers in the snippet so they match your network configuration.
- interface = This defines which network interface you are setting the configuration for.
- static ip_address = This is the IP address that you want to set your device to. (Make sure you leave the /24 at the end)
- static routers = This is the IP address of your gateway (probably the IP address or your router)
- static domain_name_servers = This is the IP address of your DNS (probably the IP address of your router). You can add multiple IP addresses here separated with a single space.
