Question about DHCP
Go to solution
Solved by smogsy,
no you should not run 2 devices giving out DHCP.
You will get IP conflicts & devices will get confused.
Disable DHCP on the wifi access point.
Here is how it works
1. Device asks (requests) for an IP to all that will listen
2. A device (DHCP server) responds giving it a valid IP.
the request for an IP will broadcast across the entire home network.
in my case Virgin media router is my only DHCP server
if you have 2 you will eventually have devices fighting over the same IP unless you changed that but their no point.
Heres mine simlair to your setup
