- Certain router has DHCP IOT issue to cause EX8000 and its client to not get DHCP IP.
Workaround is, to setup static IP with no IP conflict and same router IP segment in EX8000 and its client.
- Sometimes EX8000’s wireless station cannot get IP or has no traffic packet though EX8000. Trying that no IP wireless station re-connection can resolve this symptom.
