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!!

Is IPv6 enabled on the RS router?
Do you have native IPv6 support with the ISP?
What driver version is being used on the Intel ethernet adapter?

Strictly IPv4 on both my network, and ISP. Driver is 2.1.5.7 dated as 9/3/25, as Windows sees it.

I've passed this to NG for review.

Does this mean the PC's did not get IP addresses assigned from the router when this happens?

Seems like a DHCP issue on the LAN side (Where's the lease time setting for this router??). Every week without fail, PC's will boot up with no Internet access through the RS700, requiring another reboot of each PC. Ethernet on my PC, which has seen this issue, is an Intel i226-V wired adapter on the motherboard. No issues with 2 older Netgear routers tried. RS700 has been updated to current firmware in October (1.0.9.16_2.0.106), reset and reconfigured several times as well. No changes. Adding machines (PC) to a reservation doesn't help. Devices on my LAN are mainly streaming, 2 phones and a tablet, 1 XBox (almost never used) and of course, several hand built PC's. Which are all on reservations at this point. No address conflicts exist at all. I am an admin BTW.
