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?
