DHCP assignment issues on RS700 are not fixed
Trial Firmware for me too please. DHCP assignment issues on RS700 are not fixed with the October release 1.0.9.16_2.0.106. Options also seems skimpy in the configuration settings. Thanks!!

Issue resolved. BitDefender Security suite's firewall has an issue with detecting the network is a Home/Work network, and Public. Forced settings to Home/Work, and had to do this a few times on one rig, due to BD not saving the settings properly. One would think that they'd easily pull that information from Windows on install (c# System.Management "Network Category").
Additionally, it also has a "Stealth Mode" feature, that also has to be turned off.
This resolved the issue on all 3 machines.
I appreciate your help and time. And the same to WarmHelp_NTGR. :)
Thanks!

What brand and model# ISP Modem or ONT do you have?
What DHCP assignement issue are you seeing?
On the RBRs web page?
What devices are you setting up with IP address reservations? IF any?
Any conflicts in IP address between two devcies or more?
Trial FW is for WAN side issues with ONT systems.
