Settings > DHCP Lease doesn't work


Recommended Posts

My setup:

post-168-0-89750400-1419354246_thumb.png

 

however, rebooting the router (manually) and "ipconfig /release" "ipconfig /renew" isn't doing anything, IP addresses haven't been reallocated.

 

The trick here is to restart the DHCP server when you change one of these settings.

I will try fix asap, but my experience with the DHCP is it does a good job of assigning same IPs to same device. 

true, but my house is pretty specific about  which IP goes with what:

 

File Server = 192.168.1.50 (so i can diagnose issues)

Mac Mini = 192.168.1.55 (plex media client, need to VNC in sometimes)

Sure, it sounds like a definite bug I'll look into it after geo-filter reporting 2. I'll try address all bugs in that patch. Then we're onto improvements :)

Ok I've looked back at this section. It is working as intended, you can't change the lease of a computer till it decides to renew it. Which in most of these cases is 12 hours. If you assign a computer a host number, go to the DHCP settings and renew the lease. You'll see it change to the one you assigned.

I have my lease time set to 1 Hour in (DHCP)...In DHCP Lease I have three devices set to static...

None of those 3 devices have taken their DHCP Lease IP for over 3 days now.
