Dec 11, 2025, 5:39 PMHmm, maybe a reboot helps?
Nope, it's the switch design that requires a separate "Save configuration" button press after making a change to write the config to NVRAM.
Which is impossible to do after hitting Apply on the DHCP setting as it immediately loses its previous IP address, so after a power-cycle, you're back to square one.

What a great user experience especially if there's multiple switches that need deploying!

@snep temporarily configure DHCP server to return the same 192.168.1.1 IP?
Dec 14, 2025, 2:27 AM@drscriptt Perhaps an ad-hoc dnsmasq instace with a simple DHCP config on the laptop I already configured 192.168.1.1 on to initially connect would work, in addition to adjusting the firewall on it, but honestly, that only marginally improves the user experience, if at all...
