Model: AC50  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 0.9.1 0.2 v0093.0 Build 180313

I'm using my C50 as WI-FI acess point.

I need to configure my C50 to dinamically assign IPs (dhpc) to the connected wi-fi devices only in a defined range (192.168.1.200-250).

My C50 has a static ip 196.168.1.101 and I activated the DHCP configuring the specified range, gateway, default domain and dns.

Everything seems fine, but C50 conflicts with other dhcp server that are present on the same physical wired network (on a different subnet) offering ip to devices the are on the wired network.

 

There is a way to avoid this behavior?

There are differences connecting C50 to the wired network using yellow port or the blue one (internet)?

 

Any hint will be really appreciated!

C50 works as access point means that there is another router which works as the DHCP server which assigns IP address. 

 

If you want  to use C50 to assigna IP to the connected wifi devices, you can configure it as a regular wireless router and make the LAN IP different from the LAN IP of the main router to avoid IP conflict. 

 

In regular wireless router mode, the blue/WAN port on the C50 should be connected to the internet source to get internet.
