Title: Disable DHCP but stay in router mode?
Post by: reckert on September 18, 2015, 12:24:32 pm

Sorry for the repeat topic, but I still haven't seen an answer.

How do I disable the dhcp server and still be in router mode?   

Right now after I reboot, I kill the dnsmasq process, but that isn't clean, and if the router reboots and I am not aware of it, some of my devices get the wrong IP addresses, and it breaks access to my webcams (Which we use to monitor our son).

@ reckert,

Access point mode could be the best setup for you to have all the devices in one network and access the web cams and there is no option to disable the DHCP on Almond+ and then use it in Router mode.

Any reason for not assigning a static ip to the camera from the camera setup? I do this often and I prefer to tell the cameras which ip they are going to use rather than doing it from the router side. Seems less glitchy than with when I do it through a router.
