Hi all：
When STA connection AP， STA can automatically obtain an ip address .

192.168.2.xx <== dhcp===> AP(wan 192.168.2.6 / lan 192.168.1.1 ) <===wireless====> STA

My STA ip address is 192.168.2.7 , Why?

But some STA ip address is 192.168.1.3 , Why?

thanks.

192.168.2.xx <== dhcp===> AP(wan 192.168.2.6 / lan 192.168.1.1 ) <===wireless====> STA

Two situations：
(1) My STA ip address is 192.168.2.x .
(2) My STA ip address is 192.168.1.x .

WHY?
thanks.

An AP should have one network, not both wan and lan. How is it configured? If you randomly receive DHCP leases in different subnets (192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.2.0/24) then you may have multiple DHCP servers in your network.
