If you have any fixed IP devices in your network from your router settings, you can also set them in your HDA under [http://hda/tab/network/hosts Setup > Networking> Fixed IPs].

== An Alternative == Alternatively, if you cannot or do not want to turn off your router DHCP, you can set still use the DNS server in your HDA. To do this, since the the DNS settings for the DHCP server in your router and fill them (both primary server and secondary) to be the IP of your HDA (. You should set them both primary and secondary)to the IP of the HDA, so that the HDA is your DNS server for all your devices, which '''still need to be rebooted''' to pick these new settings up.  This way, your clients will still use your router for DHCP, but DNS from your Amahi HDA, hence accessing the apps via the short URLs will work. The last step is to stop the DHCP server in your HDA under [http://hda/tab/network/settings Setup > Networking > Settings]. For this menu to show, you have to turn on Advanced settings under Setup > Settings.
