DirecTV Wistron Neweb
I have an RAXE290, and the page showing attached devices has an invalid IP address for the DirecTV connection. When I setup DirecTV, I manually assigned an IP address outside the DHCP range, and that information appears in the Device Name. However, the IP address column shows 169.254.7.41. Any idea why that is incorrect?
By the way, on this page, the router model I have is not in the Associated Products list.

What is the IP address pool string your using on the RAXE router? Default is 192.168.1.2 thru .254. Recommend setting the default DHCP IP address pool range to the following after applying and a factory reset: 192.168.#.100 to 192.168.#.200.
