RAX80 Firmware Version V1.0.3.102_1.0.48 Is assigning duplicate IPs to devices on my network

I just installed the latest firmware for the RAX80. It blanked my password and I had to perform a factory reset of the router. The router is assigning duplicate IP addresses to devices on my network (based on 2.4 or 5GHz). My phone and my wyze camera were both assigned the same address and they are conflicting. Same thing is happening with my security system panel and another IoT device I have on 2.4GHz network.

 

What can I do to solve this problem. Is there an additional setting that is making this happen now, or is this a big bug?

    Hi onurich01, 

     

    Are you still experiencing issues after updating to the latest firmware?

      Christian,

       

      V1.0.3.102_1.0.48 is the latest firmware. My issue is that I believe this latest firmware which was intended to allow the attached device list to better hold onto it's naming, has actually broken it by holding on to names, and then assigning the same IP to two different devices.
