Model: ER8411  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.3.2

Right after installation, I noticed that two different devices (with different MAC addresses) are being assigned the same IP address in the LAN. Both devices received 192.168.104.11.

 

To test further, I changed the LAN network from 192.168.104.1/24 to 192.168.109.1/24. After this change, those same two devices were again assigned the same IP address (this time 192.168.109.2).

 

Neither of these devices has a static IP configured — which is also clear because after changing the LAN network, they correctly switched to the new subnet.


At the moment, I only have a few devices connected via Ethernet (like a server with iDRAC and a Wi-Fi router without DHCP enabled). So the network is very small.
 

This looks like a DHCP bug in the router. Has anyone else seen this behavior on the ER8411? Any ideas on how to fix or troubleshoot it?

 

Thanks in advance!

Never mind, after 24 hours everything started working properly. DHCP, SD-WAN, etc. There was some kind of router bug. 

BTW, I know how DHCP works, I had it in college.
