Nighthawk X4 R7500 problem with LAN
Hi, I am using Nighthawk X4 R7500 router almost a year without any special problems. But last week something changed. Most of my devices connected by cable were with wrong IP adress, outside defined...
- Mar 30, 2017Hi, until today router is working fine, no problem with IP adresses. So I have no idea what was that. Nothing changed in my network, same devices, same settings. I did not restart firmware, only few restarts during two weeks of mulfunction.
For today we can close the case.
Regards,
Grzegorz

Like I mentioned above, after restart router all devices wired or wireless have correct IP 10.0.0.x
After few hours or a day all wired devices changing IP to external IP similar as my router from my provider 84.213.157.x , all wirless devices working perfect with internal IP 10.0.0.x
I had reset router to default and set it again, problem was still actual.
I not tried to reflashing/ re-uploading software on the router, I will try that, maybe will help.

It's not normal for the devices to get internet IP addresses or IP address provided by the modem. Based from the description of your modem, it can be configured as a router. One thing you may do is to configure that Huawei to be in bridge mode or set it as a regular modem. In this way, the router will be the one to do its job.
