==Introduction==
This article provides a short guide on how to configure a Static IP address on a PC that uses a '''Ubuntu 16.04''' Operating System (OS). A Static IP configuration on a PC may be required when:
* Upgrading the router's Bootloader version ('''[[RUT9xx_Bootloader_Upgrade|Bootloader upgrade guide]]''')
* Upgrading the router's Firmware via the Bootloader menu ('''[[RUT9xx_Firmware_via_The_Bootloader_Menu|Firmware upgrade via the Bootloader menu guide]]''')
* You lose access to your router's '''[[LAN]]''' network (for example, when configuring Mobile '''[[Mobile#Passthrough_mode|Passthrough]]''' mode, Mobile '''[[Mobile#Mobile_Configuration|Bridge mode]]''', when you accidentally disable the router's '''[[LAN#DHCP_Server|DHCP server]], etc.)
* You're trying to connect to another device that has a Static IP address (for example, an IP camera)
Or any other case that you may think of.
