Sorry, I misspoke in my earlier post. It is not the subnet address, of course, but the IP address that is being improperly assigned by DHCP in my XAV5501/5504 kit.

My router IP (from comcast) starts with 66.177 so I know it's not coming from the router. Unplug/replug fixed the problem temporarily.
Any ideas?
