In addition to the above suggestions, changing the DHCP pool to start at a higher value e.g. 50 instead of 2 and then giving devices reserved IPs between .2 - .49 can help resolve the issue.

Had it happen again. Anything else I can try? Every device has a reserved IP than falls outside of DHCP pool
