[Southwest] Westell 9100EM - Slow Admin Interface w/ DHCPD - Hel

I discovered a very strange issue with my FiOS router very recently in which the router becomes unresponsive (web interface) when the DHCP service for the LAN/WLAN bridge connection is enabled. One or two clients my receive an address via DHCP, but the router's web interface becomes very slow and subsequent clients don't receive responses from the DHCP service.

Interestingly enough, the router forwards traffic without a problem and pings to the router from a LAN client (wired or WLAN) average around 2.5ms. Note that the WLAN radio on the router is disabled, and I'm using a 3rd party access point.

As soon as I disable the DHCP service, the administrative interface becomes usable again (i.e., doesn't take minutes to load).

Any ideas? How can I convince VZ to replace this horrible router?

I don't think you'll have any problems with them exchanging that over the counter, or even through chat support. That's a much much older router

you could even try their chat support and they would mail it to you.
