Can't reserve a lan ip address in the EE router

I want to reserve some dhcp addresses on the lan for specific controllers. I know how to do it but my router does not permit it. The fields into which I should type the current ip won't accept entries (except the last field). It accepts a mac address but then won't save it due to lack of the ip address.

I looked for router details on the system page but all the fields are blank.

Broadband is working fine but I need to set up these static lan addresses.  I have had the router for quite a few years. Does it need a reset or a replacement, or some tinkering by support staff?

Help appreciated. Stuart
