can't really disable dchp?

I'm trying to use the Genie D1500 as a simple wireless access point for a network. The network already has an existing DHCP server, so I don't need the router to hand out adresses.

However, if I turn off the DHCP server option, the router still hands out adresses, from the grayed out range on the config page.

It also sets itself as the gateway, whereas I really need the existing server to be the gateway.

 

What gives?

When you turned off the DHCP Server Option, did you click Apply to save the change?  Try power cycling the router.
