Archer AX10000 and AX1500 in a Mesh Network - Who DOes the DHCP?

Model: Archer AX10000  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

I had devices dropping offline but they seemed to have stopped after changing DHCP settings.

 

I originally had the AX10000 dolling out the IPs but just changed to have the AX1500 (RE505X) provide IPs via DHCP to thise devices that connect to it.

 

What is the "blessed" set-up for DHCP when set-up as a OneMesh environment?

@ReDTyDe 

 

I believe the network layout should be like the below, correct me if it's not:

ISP modem ------ Archer AX11000 (acts as the main router and DHCP gateway) )))((( RE505X (connect to the AX11000 via Onemesh)

 

In this scenario, the AX11000 should be the main router and act as the DHCP gateway for the network. You can leave the DHCP settings on the RE505X by default. In this case, I would suggest resetting the RE505X to factory defaults, and reconfiguring it from scratch as follows:
