Just thought I would chime in here too. I have exactly the same issue with a WPA7617 and as yet have found no way to fix it. Absolutely insane that there is no setting in the webconfig to disable the DHCP.

@Draconos 

 

absolutely true. I just don't get it. In the end I gave the powerline adapter a fixed ip address (that was mentioned as one of the work arounds here on this forum). Have yet to find out if it helps. Had no outages since that change.

@Martin010 Unfortunately it doesn't work. For me anyway.. I set mine to static out of the box due to how my networks setup, and its failed countless times since. Hopefully you have better luck.

So, after sending a rather impolite email to the support line, I was supplied with this link to a seemingly beta firmware for the WPA7617 with instructions to install it and set my ip to static.. Havent had it long enough to know if its solved it or not but if anyone else comes along with the same issue for the 7617 maybe try this
