integrating FVS318N-100EUS Router into network (dhcp, dns, ipadress conflict)

Hello, 

 

what was wrong:

 

I replaced old ADSL Router/Firewall/WLAN/VPN Gateway with Netgear  

FVS318N-100EUS   (dhcp off, DNS Proxy = default = ON)

 

DHCP / internal DNS is served by Windows Domain-Ctrl.

 

I noticed that iPhones didn´t get a IP vom DHCP.  So I activated DHCP Relay  (with windows server ip) and went home without testing due to time-pressure.

 

Next Day - the Client PCs claim "ip adress conflict" at the windows login screen and whole network haven´t got WAN, LAN.  (unclear)

 

I replaced with old router and will go next week onsite clear error.

 

What was the problem?  thank you in advance

 

best regards

  • Perhaps my fault was the "avm fritz reapeter 300e"  which act has a WLAN AP   (but it has no own DHCP Server)

     

    My next Idea - active DHCP on Netgear  for Range  192.165.5.230 - 250   and   remove this range from the "original - main windows dhcp server"

      Do not run 2 DHCP servers on the same LAN.  You will create an issue. 

       

       Which firmware is on the 318?
