Model: TL-R470T+  
Hardware Version: V6
Firmware Version: 6.0.3 Build 20180731 Rel.56894

This device doesn't allow me to set an IP Pool for its DHCP Server more than 256 or lets say 255 IP Addresses even though I'm using a subnet mask less than /24 (i.e. /23, /22). Was using Class A IP Address with /23 and /22 subnet still doesn't let me set an IP Pool more than 256. Tried Class B with /23 and /22 still no luck. I don't know if this is a bug or I'm doing something wrong. I always received this error "The number of IP addresses to be assigned should be less than:256". I'll attach the said error. I hope someone can help me out here. Would appreciate it very much. Thank you.

@ComPort Did you find a fix?  We are getting the same error/warning.

@KaonTech  Nope. Still waiting for someone to reply. Still using the device and utilizing what it can give even if something is not working as what I expected it to do.

@ComPort Looking at the hardware specs i dont think it can handle much more clients, in fact i am pretty sure it struggles even with those ! As i see it you can reuse same addresse lowering the release time or do your LB with this one and use another router for your local net.
