"MAC & IP binding" but conflicting DHCP IP assignment
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
From the "Advanced" menu', I selected the "MAC & IP binding" option and proceeded to enter ALL my wired and wireless devices. I wanted to have reproducible IP addresses: every time, no matter what, a certain device should always get 192.168.1.103.
As soon as I finished, I rebooted and started switching on all the devices, which I had turned off. At this point, I presume that the DHCP of the router started assigning IP addresses, regardless of the "MAC & IP binding" table. I even had two devices getting the same IP.
Of course, devices with a certain MAC address but taking unspecified IP addresses became unresponsive and it was a miracle I managed to regain access to the router via web (and delete most of the bindings).
I found no trace of the DHCP menu. How should I proceed to achieve what I want without the conflicts experienced?
