Possible IP address conflicts with FIOS set top boxes
I recently installed a TP-Link s4 mesh and it is largely working fine. I have a FIOS G1100 router that the Deco unit connected to. I turned off the FIOS wifi so I could seemlessly connect with all of my wireless devices. That worked fine although I noted that it oly worked when I connected the S4 to the FIOS WAN port. I have noted some problems with my FIOS TV set top boxes that I thought predated the Deco setup but I am unsure.
The Deco gateway is 192.168.1.1 So is the FIOS gateway if I connect directly to it on a LAN Port. The FIOS router shows four devices connected to it on IP Addresses 192.168.1.101-104 via COAX. It also shows the Linux laptop I connected to the FIOS LAN port on 192.168.1.240. I can't see the S4 at all - maybe becuae it is connected on the WAN port?
At any rate. Is it possible/likely that the S4 might assign ip addresses in the same range that the FIOS router is handing out to it's devices? If so, is there some way I can specifiy a higher range (or lower) for the s4 to hand out?
