Hey there! Just wondering about DHCP settings on a mesh network. I have an AX55 router with a few different range extenders (RE500X, RE715X) all set up as a mesh network. The main router has the DHCP turned on but all the extenders are set to "auto" by default. I've been having some problems with all the devices periodically dropping the 5G band and wondering if these DHCP settings might have anything to do with it. I have already set the lease time on the main router to the maximum 2880 seconds or whatever it is but should the settings of the mesh routers match the main or not?

 

Thanks for any insight!

Ron
