Apple devices ignoring DHCP rules - using up all my IP addresses on the FiOS-G1100

Your lease time may be causing a bug in the DHCP client on Apple devices. That is an unusually long lease time so I wouldn't be surprised if it was something like an integer vs float vs signed integer problem in the code. Please consider cutting the leases down to 3600 minutes, and then use DHCP Reservation for any devices that you own which you would like to keep on a fixed IP.
Now if this is for guest devices, consider limiting your least time to 30 to 60 minutes. Many devices are mobile and do not need 90 day long leases. That's wasteful of an otherwise limited IP subnet.

Apple devices ignoring DHCP rules - using up all my IP addresses on the FiOS-G1100 Hi all, I have now gone through two of the new quantum gateways and both allow Apple devices of all kinds to bypass the lease time that I set to something like 129600 Minutes for that specific IP Address (which is 90 days, or three months). People using our guest network end up taking all our non-static addresses and then we have none left to issue out to other users or staff. I'm about to receive my third g1100 from Verizon and I'm pretty sure it's not the box but the firmware. I've had to do 2-3 hard resets on both boxes since Jan '15 to erase everything and start over with loading custom settings back in. A Huge pain. Once all addresses are taken up and you login as Admin on the router, half of the UI options have now disappeared. Also in general there is no way to manually force the router to expire LAN IP addresses even after a hard reset. Or is there and I just have never seen this option?  Anyone else experience this? I've spent about 3 hours with multiple reps who either don't believe me or have no idea how their product works. I'm beginning to either think I'm crazy or there's a bug and no one has reported it yet.  Best,Lockdown

  • My apple I'd on my iPad is different than on my other apple devices how do i get them all to be the same

    I want to update some apps on my iPad mini but the user I'd that is displayed is not the one I use on all other devices how do I change the applied on just the iPad mini so that it is the same as all other devices I use. I donor want to change my password or use the applied that is showing on the iPad mini

    All apps are tied to the Apple ID they are purchased with and are not transferable.

    Since upgrading to ios6, all the family's apple devices (new ipad, 2 iphone4 & itouch) are having difficulty reconnecting to the home hub wifi network. I.e, every time the lock screen comes on, the wifi connection is lost when you reopen the device and we have to reconnect through settings. This appears to be an ios6 software issue.
    Is there a solution to this wifi connection issue or do we wait for a software fix?
    I'd hate to think Apple is going down the Microsoft path, of passing untested software onto the user. What ever happened to Regression Testing, to ensure the existing functionality remains intact?
    I bought into the Apple dream, because it was intuitive, reliable & enjoyable to use, all the things that Microsoft windows isn't.
    Other issues we are experiencing are, Games are stuttering and the kids really miss the old YouTube app.
    Please Mr Browett, sort these issues out.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • I want to sign in using apple id password and altho i have changed my email address on the settings, the old one comes up on the box on the ipad when trying to update all the apps.  so putting password in no longer works, as its the address. how fix ?

    Signing in using the apple id password to update and purchase stuff thru apple store, gives the old email and am unable to get into the apps store, etc...to change, update and purchase stuff.   when using password it won't work, as the email is wrong, yet in the box doesn't appear a place to change the email. would have thought as it changed, days ago - it would change to the updated email.

  • Sending email using Exchange 2013 defined email addresses not the account email address.

    Currently we are using exchange 2013. Let's say a user has a mailbox account defined that has a default email reply address of [email protected] Now I define additional email address for the same account. When the user tries to send an email he can only send from
    the default email address. Is it possible to send from a defined email anndress and not the default account email address?
    Best Regards
    Best Regards

    Not natively with Exchange.
    You will need 3rd party software if you want to have only one mailbox and the ability to send as any of the proxy addresses associated with it
    Example:

    Not sure if Exchange 2013 is supported with it yet

  • How do I use a Contact Group email address as the sender of an email?

    I want members of the contact group to be able to manual select the contact group email address as the SENDER.  This, primarily, so that recipient clients can respond, if necessary, by merely pressing reply (then the entire group gets the email). 
    Possible?

    By "contact group" do you mean a distribution group?  If so, you need to use one of the following the shell commands:
    For Send on Behalf:   Set-DistributionGroup <group alias> -GrantSendOnBahalfTo <useralias>
    For Send As:              Add-AdPermission<group ID>-User<user alias>-ExtendedRights'Send-As'

  • HT204053 I have multiple apple devices, 2x phones ipad etc, but all are through the same email and I only get the storage space for one device, what should I do?

    I have multiple devices all under the same id and email but I don't get multiple icloud storage space and it's running out!
    Can anyone help as I've just bought an iphone for my daughter and would like to link it as well.
    Thanks in anticipation of your help.

    One icloud account gets a 5 GB of storage, regardless of the number of devices connecting to it.  But you're in luck, you can buy more storage for the account if you are running low.
    As for your daughter, be sure to get her own icloud account, otherwise she'll end up getting all your email, contacts, etc.  And if she deletes any of this data, it will be deleted on your devices as well.  Note:  you can all keep using the same ID for the itunes store for sharing purchased items.

  • HT5622 Two Apple devices, how can I use FaceTime with one ID?

    I recently purchased a new IPad as I will be traveling. The reason for the new iPad was to be able to connect with my family through FaceTime. I have an Apple ID, can I use the same id on the new iPad and still connect through FaceTime? To me it sounds like I will be trying to connect to myself. Not sure hoe it will work? Any suggestions on how I can use my Apple ID without creating a new id?

    You can't. It's like calling someone in another room using the same phone number from which you're calling.

  • I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro.  My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook.  They are all associated with the same Apple ID.  How do I get all of my music on the laptop?

    I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro.  My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook.  They are all associated with the same Apple ID.  When I try to sync, I get a warning message stating that I will lose songs on my phone which aren't on the laptop.  How transfer my music from my phone to the laptop?

    Hey kbert73
    I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

  • I know Apple will buy back a used iPad but I can't find the site.

    when I bought my new iPad, the salesman showed me a site on the Apple website where I could find out how much Apple would give me (in credit, I think), but I can't find it again.  Anyone know?

    Your only option is to sell the iPad and buy a new one.

  • Is there a virus for Mozilla that causes it to incorrectly type in certain symbols like " instead of the at sign used in all emails. Also É for the question mar

    It is possible that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident.
    * http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258824 - How to change your keyboard layout
    Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application and you may have changed the keyboard layout by accident via a keyboard shortcut.
    * http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/The-Language-bar-overview The Language bar (overview)
    * Make sure that you have the Language bar visible on the Windows Taskbar
    * You can do that via the right-click context menu of the Taskbar: Toolbars > Language Bar
    * Check the keyboard language (keyboard layout) setting for the application that has focus via the icon on the Language bar
    * You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application
    * The default key combination to rotate the layout is the Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift combination that Firefox uses for some menu items
    * To avoid an unintentional switch, assign a specific key sequence (Alt/Ctrl+Shift+number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate layouts (Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift)

  • If I have three apple devices, each eligible for a 5GB storage account, can I combine the three into 1 15GB storage unit?

    If I have 3 devices, each eligible for 5GB storage, can they be combined into1 15GB storage unit?
