I have a device that I cannot set the IP addy, it only works with DHCP.
Is there a location for locking an IP to the MAC addy in the router?

Welcome to the forum
To get the best out of DDWRT and the forum read the forum guidelines full of helpful pointers:
https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=324087
If you have not already read the forum guidelines, please do !!
The forum guidelines will tell you. among other useful things, where to download builds (your build is old and has already security issues) and where to post your questions (this is not the place)
I will transfer your question to a more appropriate forum.
What you are looking for is called a static lease research that for starters (and of course consider upgrading ) _________________ Routers:Netgear R7000, R6400v1, R6400v2, EA6900 (XvortexCFE), E2000, E1200v1, WRT54GS v1.

No problem we are here to help
You can use the GUI (Services/Services) and Add a static lease or paste this in the Additional DNSMasq options:
Code: dhcp-host=08:97:98:xx:xx:xx,nitro,192.168.6.58,1440m
When using the latter it is easier if you have to upgrade, just save it in a text file so you can easily copy paste it.
But if you just Google:
"DDWRT static lease" the first thing you find is:

P.S. Do not forget to upgrade _________________ Routers:Netgear R7000, R6400v1, R6400v2, EA6900 (XvortexCFE), E2000, E1200v1, WRT54GS v1.
