Deco M5 - Subnet blank in WAN Dynamic IP
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Have Netgear MR1100 with IP passthrough enabled.
When selecting Advanced...IP4...WAN...Internet Connecton Type...Dynamic IP, the Deco M5 incorrectly sets the subnet blank! Internet connection is then broken.
By selecting "Static IP" and setting the subnet to 255.255.255.0, everything works! Obviosly can't use it like this, as the ISP changes the IP randomly (i.e. reboot).
Need to have this fixed. If the subnet is retrieved incorrectly, at least there should be an option to override it when "Dynamic IP" is selected. Thanks!
Dynamic IP (does not work, subnet wrong):
Static IP (works, subnet correct):
Hello,
May I know who is your ISP and what kind of modem are you using, is it a cable modem or DSL modem?
Please ensure you have internet access when connecting your PC to your ISP modem directly, confirm what is the IP address and subnet mask on that PC. If it is a Windows computer, you can Press Windows key + "R”->type in "ncpa.cpl”->right click the "Ethernet/Local Area Connection" ->Status->Details, remember that MAC address.
Relaunch the Deco app and start over, select “Manually Enter MAC address” to give it a go:
