No issues with my three indoor units. I've seen this issue posted before Gold loan, but no resolution was provided. I believe I have the most recent firmware, but NetGear makes it harder than it needs to be because they want that insight money.
What is your final perdiction?

C7800 router is having DHCP issues with two netgear switches. Doesn't matter if I plug one switch into another or if I plug both directly into the C7800 modem router. Can't update the C7800 because firmware is locked by the ISP (Cox) and doubt netgear cares enough to do anything so looks like I'll be buying a Motorola modem.
On a side note this whole thing is causing crazy network issues where devices think they are connceted to internet but aren't. TVs won't stream, VOIP phones won't show call histories (but will make phone calls sometimes). Knocks the entire network out for about two minutes at a time.
