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!!
FINALLY. It happened.
On my HP z210 PC Win11 25H2 with Intel i226 ethernet adapter with driver v2.1.5.7 and Energy Effiency and power management enabled on the adapter, after checking the same PC yesterday and leaving it since yesterday, around 10 minutes ago, I woke the PC from sleep with the mouse and low and behold the PC didn't get a valid IP address. I checked the front of the router and port#2 is were I have it connected. LED was ON but not blinking. Adatper only getting a 169 IP address. It had 192.168.1.1 for the gateway and such. IP was not a dynamic 192.168.1.x address.
I started debug logging on the RS router. Let it run for a minute. Then used the disable on the adapter card to disable the adatper for 5 seconds then re-enabled the card. After a few seconds, adapter connected and this time got a valid IP address and internet services.
I went in and disabled the energy efficiency and power management options on the card and will check this PC tomorrow to see if same thing happens again.
So with EE and PM disabled on the adapter, PC sleep then wake to ready, ethernet adatper has been getting an IP address fully and internet access each day I've checked.
