Can't disable XR500 DHCP server
Router model and DumaOS version: XR500 V2.3.2.130
I just bought a Firewalla Blue+, which requires my router DHCP server to be disabled for compatibility, so the Firewalla can operate in DHCP mode. https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/360009401874-Router-Compatibility
- I log into router's DumaOS > Settings > LAN Setup page, uncheck "Use Router as DHCP Server" and click "Apply".
- I get a popup window that says "Your devices will be disconnected while the router gets a new IP address."
- I click "Ok", the LAN Setup pages goes blank.
- I select LAN Setup again and page opens with the "Use Router as DHCP Server" box checked.
I have restarted the router, but the same behavior occurs. Thanks in advance for any advice and assistance.
