Archer VR400 blocking already existent DHCP lease
Tags:
#dhcp
Hello,
i'm installing a new Archer VR400 in an already existent network in which i already have a DHCP Server.
So i put off the DHCP server on admin panel but the results is that my clients (wifi or by lan cable on lan ports) cannot obtain an IP address using DHCP.
Doing it manually everything works.
Maybe someone has experienced this problem in the past?
thank you

There's no need to set VR400 in 'wireless router mode', unless you're planning to use it like a wireless router.
In this mode LAN4 port is used like a WAN port. In 'DSL modem router mode' you'll have all 4 LAN ports available for wired devices.
As Philbert suggested, just change the DHCP server to DHCP relay, set your remote DHCP server IP address and you should be fine:
