WNCE2001 inappropriately providing DHCP connections
I have a new WNCE2001 Wireless Ethernet bridge and have successfully configured it to connect my ethernet-only printer to my home network. This morning, I was unable to get to the internet from my iP...
I thought I was crazy until I ran into this problem this week. Normally my wnce2001 is off except for a few hours a day, but recently I've been leaving it on 24/7 and it is giving out an address to my Wife's laptop. The address is completely out of the range that my DHCP server uses and my WiFi access point does not give out addresses.
I'm at the latest version of the firmware and I don't know what else to do.
The odd thing is that the device that is physically connected to the wnce2001 still gets a valid IP from my _real_ dhcp server and works correctly. The LAN settings in the wnce2001 show that the DHCP server is ON and it has a 192.168.1.251 address.
This bites!
