DHCP Constant Renewing Issue

My XR700 is contantly renewing DHCP leases and many of my wireless devices lose Internet access. They work when I set a static IP for the devices. I've rebooted and updated to firmware V1.0.1.34. I've noticed several other people have this issue. Is there a fix for it? I have too many IoT devices to set up static IP's for everyone. The devices on the wire network don't seem to experience this problem.

Thanks for the assistance.

Best Regards,

Chris

Re: DHCP Constant Renewing Issue

There will be DHCP fixes in the beta firmware, I can't say exactly when it will be available but we are working very hard to get it out as soon as possible. Are you using Smart Connect for WiFi? It could be part of the problem that switching between bands causes some disconnects so perhaps disabling this could help.

Thanks for the reply. Not using smart connect. It just started "out of the blue", we've had the router since May.

Re: DHCP Constant Renewing Issue

What is your XR connected to exactly a modem or router?
