Orbi DHCP address range configurable?
It would *appear* that, no matter what IP and subnet mask you tell Orbi to use, DHCP will only assign the first 252 addresses.
(i.e. If you change to 172.16.0.1\22, Orbi will only open the last octet up for DHCP, and only allow addresses ending in 0.2 through 0.254.)
Is this a limitation of the system or is there a way to configure the third octet of DHCP addresses and I'm just missing it?

You're going to need to explain how to do that, since it's not apparent either from this screen, or from your profile screen.
Meanwhile, the Orbi app won't connect either. I see a lot of people having that problem. I guess I'd like to know the app (iOS) knows to connect with your particular Orbi.
