Hello,
I've come across a weird thing in regards to the WGR614v9's handling of DHCP.
I've got a few machines setup with DHCP reservations.
Usually I'd set my reservations in the first part of the subnet - x.x.x.2-20 and start the DHCP scope from 21.
The problem is that to have a reservation on the WGR614v9you need to use addresses from the current scope.
If you have a reservation for a device that is not currently on -> add a device to the network without a reservation -> then power on the deivce the with the reservation you can find it's got a DHCP conflict as the other device took it's address as it's currently in the pool.
Anyone had this and know how to solve it?
