At least once a day I notice that devices are able to connect to the Deco wifi but do not receive a valid IP address, but instead have a self-assigned address.
Looking in the log I can see many entries like: "daemon.err udhcpd[4638]: no free IP addresses. OFFER abandoned". So it seems that the DHCP server is running out of IP addresses, or that IP addresses are not being released correctly.
I have on average about 35 devices connected to the wifi network and the DHCP server is set up to server addresses between 10.0.1.100 to 10.0.1.250.
this problem has only occurred in the last few days. Could there be a roughe device swallowing up IP addresses?
not sure what to try to fix this issue or whether the units have developed a fault.

My Service Provider is Virgin Media (UK)
The router is the Virgin Media Hub 4 (in modem mode)
There is an Apple Time Capsule (v1) in the network, but it is configured only to connect to the network via Ethernet and to recieve an IP address via DHCP. Other network configuration (DHCP/wi-fi/etc) is off.

Andrew

I have the exact same problem with my TP-link M4 devices. I have 3 M4´s:
Incoming fiber->fiberconverter->DecoM4 Primary in routermode -> 2nd M4 connected via Ethernet and 3rd M4 connected Wirelessly via the 2nd M4.
Network contains one Timecapsule and one airport express, but none of them have dhcp or other serverfeatures turned on.
Has there been any fix for this yet?

DHCP is configured to hand out .10-.250 and network have 26 clients connected, should be plenty of adresses left, I cant see any device flooding discovers with different mac adresses either. Router spits out this message just minutes after a fresh reboot.....
