ESP32-CAM: Set Static/Fixed IP Address (Arduino IDE)

This tutorial shows how to set a static/fixed IP address for your ESP32-CAM board. If you’re running a web server or Wi-Fi client with your ESP32-CAM and every time you restart your board, it has a new IP address, you can follow this tutorial to assign a static/fixed IP address.

Static/Fixed IP Address Sketch

To show you how to fix your ESP32-CAM IP address, we’ll use the CameraWebServer Example that comes with the Arduino IDE.

By the end of our explanation you should be able to fix your IP address regardless of the web server or Wi-Fi project you’re building.

In your Arduino IDE, go to File > Examples > ESP32 > Camera > CameraWebServer.
Then, modify the code to fix the IP address as we’ll explain.

Setting ESP8266 Static IP Address

Before the setup() and loop() functions, define the following variables with your own static IP address and corresponding gateway IP address.

By default, the next snippet assigns the IP address 192.168.1.184 that works in the gateway 192.168.1.1.

// Set your Static IP address IPAddress local_IP(192, 168, 1, 184); // Set your Gateway IP address IPAddress gateway(192, 168, 1, 1); IPAddress subnet(255, 255, 0, 0); IPAddress primaryDNS(8, 8, 8, 8); //optional IPAddress secondaryDNS(8, 8, 4, 4); //optional

In the setup() , you need to call the WiFi.config() method to assign the configurations to your ESP32-CAM (before starting Wi-Fi).

if(!WiFi.config(local_IP, gateway, subnet, primaryDNS, secondaryDNS)) < Serial.println("STA Failed to configure"); >WiFi.begin(ssid, password);

The primaryDNS and secondaryDNS parameters are optional and you can remove them.

You can download the complete code for this project here. It assigns the static IP address 192.168.1.184. You just need to insert your network credentials and the code will work straight away.

Testing

After uploading the code to your board, open the Arduino IDE Serial Monitor at the baud rate 115200. Restart your ESP32-CAM board and the IP address defined earlier should be assigned to your board.

As you can see, it prints the IP address 192.168.1.184.

Now, you can access that IP address on your local network to watch the video streaming web server.

Wrapping Up

In this tutorial, you’ve learned how to set up a static IP address for your ESP32-CAM. You can use what you’ve learned here in any of your ESP32-CAM sketches.

ESP32 Static/Fixed IP Address

This tutorial shows how to set a static/fixed IP address for your ESP32 board. If you’re running a web server or Wi-Fi client with your ESP32 and every time you restart your board, it has a new IP address, you can follow this tutorial to assign a static/fixed IP address.

Static/Fixed IP Address Sketch

To show you how to fix your ESP32 IP address, we’ll use the ESP32 Web Sever code as an example. By the end of our explanation you should be able to fix your IP address regardless of the web server or Wi-Fi project you’re building.

Copy the code below to your Arduino IDE, but don’t upload it yet. You need to make some changes to make it work for you.

Note: if you upload the next sketch to your ESP32 board, it should automatically assign the fixed IP address 192.168.1.184.

Setting Your Network Credentials

You need to modify the following lines with your network credentials: SSID and password.

// Replace with your network credentials const char* ssid = "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SSID"; const char* password = "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PASSWORD";

Setting your Static IP Address

Then, outside the setup() and loop() functions, you define the following variables with your own static IP address and corresponding gateway IP address.

By default, the next code assigns the IP address 192.168.1.184 that works in the gateway 192.168.1.1.

// Set your Static IP address IPAddress local_IP(192, 168, 1, 184); // Set your Gateway IP address IPAddress gateway(192, 168, 1, 1); IPAddress subnet(255, 255, 0, 0); IPAddress primaryDNS(8, 8, 8, 8); // optional IPAddress secondaryDNS(8, 8, 4, 4); // optional

Important: you need to use an available IP address in your local network and the corresponding gateway.

setup()

In the setup() you need to call the WiFi.config() method to assign the configurations to your ESP32.

// Configures static IP address if (!WiFi.config(local_IP, gateway, subnet, primaryDNS, secondaryDNS))

Note: the primaryDNS and secondaryDNS parameters are optional and you can remove them.

Testing

After uploading the code to your board, open the Arduino IDE Serial Monitor at the baud rate 115200, restart your ESP32 board and the IP address defined earlier should be assigned to your board.

As you can see, it prints the IP address 192.168.1.184.

You can take this example and add it to all your Wi-Fi sketches to assign a fixed IP address to your ESP32.

Assigning IP Address with MAC Address

If you’ve tried to assign a fixed IP address to the ESP32 using the previous example and it doesn’t work, we recommend assigning an IP address directly in your router settings through the ESP32 MAC Address.

Add your network credentials (SSID and password). Then, upload the next code to your ESP32:

/********* Rui Santos Complete project details at https://randomnerdtutorials.com *********/ // Load Wi-Fi library #include // Replace with your network credentials const char* ssid = "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SSID"; const char* password = "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_PASSWORD"; // Set web server port number to 80 WiFiServer server(80); void setup() < Serial.begin(115200); // Connect to Wi-Fi network with SSID and password Serial.print("Connecting to "); Serial.println(ssid); WiFi.begin(ssid, password); while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) < delay(500); Serial.print("."); >// Print local IP address and start web server Serial.println(""); Serial.println("WiFi connected."); Serial.println("IP address: "); Serial.println(WiFi.localIP()); server.begin(); // Print ESP MAC Address Serial.println("MAC address: "); Serial.println(WiFi.macAddress()); > void loop() < // put your main code here, to run repeatedly: >

In the setup() , after connecting to your network, it prints the ESP32 MAC Address in the Serial Monitor:

// Print ESP MAC Address Serial.println("MAC address: "); Serial.println(WiFi.macAddress());

In our case, the ESP32 MAC Address is B4:E6:2D:97:EE:F1. Copy the MAC Address, because you’ll need it in just a moment.

Router Settings

If you login into your router admin page, there should be a page/menu where you can assign an IP address to a network device. Each router has different menus and configurations. So, we can’t provide instructions on how do to it for all the routers available.

We recommend Googling “assign IP address to MAC address” followed by your router name. You should find some instructions that show how to assign the IP to a MAC address for your specific router.

In summary, if you go to your router configurations menu, you should be able to assign your desired IP address to your ESP32 MAC address (for example B4:E6:2D:97:EE:F1).

Wrapping Up

After following this tutorial you should be able to assign a fixed/static IP address to your ESP32.
