Re: Increase DHCP LeaseTime setting?

First of all,
I have already told that I want to increase and de-crease on 2 seperate networks in 2 different envirement I want change the DHCP lease on the guest network from 24Hour to 1Hour because people come in and out. 
So having this control gives me more flexibility to work with. 

 

Second,
"How is the DNS problem drops being in this release?" This question is being asked about the product R7800, not for the R7000. in the early versions/firmwares of the R7800 there was a problem occurred when with DNS drops for the model R7800. 
I don't have this problem, but I was wondering how the latest firmware behaves about this problem what was before.

https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-Pro-Gaming-Routers/Nighthawk-R-X4S-R7800-DNS-Resolve-stab...


Saying it again, I don't have these DNS problems. Maybe I posted in the wrong post. But what I want is to have control over my DHCP lease time. For me, it's ''new'' that Netgear Products never had this option flex. for the customer... 
If I had known this before I never have bought a Netgear product in the first place.

Thank you with thinking with me.

I'll will look into the SSH with a Voxel's firmware to achieve changing the DHCP lease.

How many guests do you have on your network on the guest environment in one hour, and in one day?

 

Still unanswered is the question why you intend to increase the DHCP expiration time on the other environment.

It's too bad Voxel doesn't support the R7000. May one of the other FW variants will work though. OpenWRT or DD-WRT.
