XR1000 Having dhcp issues
XR1000 issues below screenshot.
Hello Netgear Community, So I just got a XR1000. I'm upgrading from an XR450 and since I installed my new router I keep having issues in 2 devices assigning the same ip to them every 2 minutes. These devices are Google Home Display devices and everytime that I see that they are gettting the same ip I get on the Google Display a message saying reconnecting.
I'm not sure what can be as this is not happening with my XR450, I have 1 gig AT&T connection.
What do you guys suggest to check? I did assisgn static ip's to both devices and the same issue keeps happening.
It is really frustrating :( .
Thanks for the help!

You could set them with reserved ip address to prevent them from being assigned the same ip address.

Some issues apply to just about every router, but sometimes it helps to ask the experts on your hardware.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
Nighthawk Pro Gaming Routers - NETGEAR Communities
Gaming routers have their own DumaOS operating system that is nothing like the one on Netgear's standard routers.
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
