• What Hardware version is your router? Look at sticker under the router case.
• Link>What Firmware (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=47512.0) version is currently loaded? Found on the routers web page under status.
• What region are you located?

Review this first please:

To set up Reserved IP addresses, select the Connected Clients icon on the home screen. This will take you to a screen on what is connected.
Select the first device icon by clicking on the pencil on the icon to edit the configuration. The Host name maybe blank or filled in with unknown, you can edit this to what you like. I recommend naming it something to easily identify what the device is.

To reserve the IP address click on the IP Reserve slider bar and then enter in the IP address for the device. I recommend using what was initially handed out to the device that's with in the DHCP IP address pool. You can change the last number to something else, however you'll have to reboot the device so the change will be made.  Select Save. Do this process for all the devices that need a Reservation.

Static IP addresses are set ON devices and outside the routers default DHCP IP address pool and NOT with in the pool. Review the linked DHCP information about this.
