Issue with Devices Obtaining IP Address
We run many connected devices in our home - 20+ at any given time. Recently, we've periodically struggled to turn on our TCL/Roku TV and have it obtain an IP address. It sees the network, has the correct credentials, but fails to obtain address. It seems to be random and only periodically, almost as if it drops out sometimes. Randomly it will connect again and we don't have the issue for several days.
Additionally, we have two Amazon Fire tables that see the network, have the correct credentials, but again are unable to obtain an IP address.
In both instances, I can see it on the Firewalla app, and they seem to be bouncing in and out of connecting. It appears that they grab an IP address but then they disconnect.
We're running on EeroMesh wifi in bridge mode. Connection type is DHCP with IPv6. STP and ping are both turned off, though don't know if that matters. Didn't have issues before Firewalla install when only running Eero.
