Conundrum

Two warnings - including one that says I have two dhcps, but where the second one is coming from ?

Don't seem to be able to add an attachment of the screen display....
 
DHCP is not healthy
More than one DHCP active at once, 2: 192.168.30.1 (04:C3:E6:66:48:B2) on 192.168.30.0/24,192.168.50.1 (FC:34:97:53:72:48) on 192.168.50.0/24

But where that rogue DHCP is I can't find....
 
Do you have a guest network turned on? And/ or do both your SSIDs use the same DHCP? Different SSIDs can be assigned to use different DHCP ranges
 
There's a guest network set up - but that uses 101, rather than 50 (or 30).

Both SSDs use the same range of DHCP. This conundrum affects both the 2.4 and 5 channel.

I wonder if a firmware upgrade has inadvertently switched something on that it shouldn't have done - but if that is the case I'd not be the only one with the problem?
 
As far as I can tell. The state of the router is effectively as default settings in all aspects. There's a mac address for the rogue, but Fing can't identify the device. I thought it might be the NAS, but the dhcp option is off. There's little else to mind that can be broadcasting outside of the router. The damn printer does., but that's off.

Generally we don't have a 'smart' house so options are few.

EDIT: For most of today only the NAS has been wired to the router.
 
After 32 hours without electricity (thanks Storm Arwen!).

I have only one DHCP server!

Now to discover what's causing the issue as I continue to slowly switch things back on.
 
I had a similar thing, I use Deco mesh, but only use them in AP mode, and run dhcp on my own server and use a linux firewall as router. Found out if there is no other dhcp server on the network the Deco will turn its own DHCP server on regardless of whether it is disabled or not. Drove me potty when power cut rebooted the firewall and everything picked up a wierd ip address and then couldn't get out onto the internet.
