Increase DHCP LeaseTime setting?
Hi, Where can I find this setting to increase DHCP Leasetime? This simple setting it seems its not include in the firmware? Why is that? This is a basic setting that should in the firmware.
I see.
Never know that this a thing on Netgear products.
It doesn't matter which I want, the only thing I want is the control over it. In my guest network I want to de-crease the DHCP lease time and in my other router I want to increase the lease time.
So again it doesn't matter which one I suggest, I need both to increase and to de-crease it in the other product...
I was hoping that this was a bug or a feature that was forgotten, but now I read more that Netgear is not giving the control to their customers.

Well, on the R7800 you can install Voxel's firmware and enable SSH. Then you can adjust the lease time in some file (no idea which one). That's the only way to do it. On the R7000, you can try enabling Telnet access in debug.htm (if they haven't removed it)
Thank you with thinking with me.
I'll will look into the SSH with a Voxel's firmware to achieve changing the DHCP lease.
