    This has me really frustrated! Perhaps I don't have the right
    incantation but I'm unable to enter more than seven dhcp address
    assignments and keep them. I have a total of 17 that I need.

    I've entered all 17 of them and I can go through data entry box by
    box and do a little double click routine and each one fills in so it
    remembers what I've done, even through a power down! But those in
    excess of the first 7 are lost from the list of DHCP clients under
    the wireless system information tab!

    I fill in a few lines, click "save" then click "apply" and then go
    on and do some more up to the 16th line. They are not really applied
    it seems since they don' t appear in the dhcp client list? If I
    enter the 17th line and "save" they are immediately stripped out
    back to the first seven?

    I'm working from Firefox and did the "Tools > Start Private
    Browsing" thing if that matters but saw no change.

    Any idea what I am doing wrong?

    Bob
