MR600 - Address reservation doesn't work properly
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Basically, address reservation for specific MAC addresses doesn't seem to work properly (it does whatever the hell it wants at any given time).
I have around 24 devices with reserved IP addresses. For a few of them, seemingly random, the router offers an IP from the DHCP pool instead of the one I reserved.
For example, you can clearly see the reserved address for this MAC:
And this is what happens when the client requests a new IP address, as seen in the log:
2020-10-03 16:10:36 [5] DHCPD: Recv DISCOVER from 08:00:27:73:01:64
2020-10-03 16:10:36 [5] DHCPD: Send OFFER with ip 192.168.1.105
2020-10-03 16:10:36 [5] DHCPD: Recv REQUEST from 08:00:27:73:01:64
2020-10-03 16:10:37 [5] DHCPD: Send ACK to 192.168.1.105
This happens with other three or 4 hosts with reserved addresses. I've done multiple restarts of the router and clients, removed and re-added the configurations, nothing seems to work. I even removed ALL reserved IP addresses and re-added them all, to no avail. This seriously messes up my IOT stuff setup...
Anyone facing a similar issue?
Not even IP & MAC Binding works properly. Here is an example for other host (which is both in the DHCP reserved addresses and IP/MAB binding lists):
And then, what happens when the client connects:
2020-10-03 17:37:09 [6] System: Device(60:AB:67:EA:40:CB) joins in 2.4G Wlan
2020-10-03 17:37:10 [5] DHCPD: Recv DISCOVER from 60:AB:67:EA:40:CB
2020-10-03 17:37:10 [5] DHCPD: Send OFFER with ip 192.168.1.106
2020-10-03 17:37:10 [5] DHCPD: Recv REQUEST from 60:AB:67:EA:40:CB
