I know this is an old thread but I was having the same problem with reserved addresses not getting assigned. I tried the "trick" of changing the DHCP addresses from x.x.x.21 to x.x.x.254 TO x.x.x.21 to x.x.x.100.
Restarted the devices that were not getting the addresses I wanted and it all worked. I had tried restarting the devices prior to changing the auto assigned addresses range and it did not work at that time. Only after changing the range of the auto addresses.
I know enough to know that should not change the addresses I wanted reserved. Nothing was assigned in the >100 range in the first place. All I know is it solved my problem.

The Quote button has been replaced by that ginormous double quote mark on the menu bar. and the other options only show up if you click those three dots (...) and there appears to be no way to "go back" (sigh)
