My router died at the same time my ISP had issues. Was it the router or them? Always a fun game. Used my old router. It worked. Exchanged it today. Didn't bother to tell me they had to activate it. Had to call for that. Call center said I could have done that online. You know, without a working router. 🙄
Anyway it's all back up.

Tried using a short expiry for leases, and let them regenerate several times, but luck.

The reserved IPs list is still not letting me remove items, or change them.

I see one reference says changing the hosting address will clear the DHCP static reservations list.

Ugh, my SO is on a video call just now, so will wait until end of day, and see if I can clear out that list.

If that doesn't work, a factory reboot, and DSL reconfig etc will be last resort.
