cant change IP address range values in LAN DHCP setting
I am using MR60 router. I cant change DHCP range in LAN setting from admin console. As soon as I change ending IP address (last four digits) from 10.0.0.254 to 10.0.0.250 and click Apply, the router ...
Looks like it has been changed and disabled to avoid double NAT with the ISP gateway.

The internet setup screen clearly shows the router is connected to a gateway, since the WAN is a 192.168.1.x address.
But double NAT is not as evil as many posters here suggest, and isn't related to the problem vish_at is asking about. The only ways to avoid double-NAT are to set up the ISP gateway in bridge mode, or set up the MR60 as an AP. Disabling the LAN DHCP server range settings won't do it.
What's the need to change to the ending LAN ip address from 254 to 250?
That would be good to know. Often the goal is to allow some static IP addresses. But whatever the reason, it should work.
vish_at - have you tried changing the starting IP address from 2 to 6? Does that also fail to stick?
Have you tried doing a factory reset of the router?
