I think I know what it is, but how can I verify via the app or another way?

I don't see system setting in the app.
Which app are you using?

Depends on the router software. Some report friendly names, some don't. Mine just reports the MAC address.

OTOH, my router reports (and respects) any static IP addresses it finds on my LAN. Many routers only report DHCP assigned addresses.

Ah, the error of generalizing based on my experience with the last five routers I've had- two Netgear, two supplied by ATT U-verse, and an Apple Airport. I guess my statement stands for some meanings of "should". :)

I can't imagine a router that would diss a fixed IP on one's owned network, not one that cost more than $40 in the last five years, but don't doubt that they exist.
