@verizon.net | [new technologies] DHCP is up and running
in Oregon.
Just did the firmware update on the DI624. Noticed it defaulted to DHCP.
Working like it should. |

P.S. I actually tried switching to DHCP a few months ago, and it seemed to work, but only for a few minutes. Testing? Or my deranged imagination? |

| I used the one here »www2.verizon.net/micro/dlink/fir···nly.asp?
i used that for my 604 wired router and it didnt change the pppoe to dhcp. Maybe different for the wireless router though. |

| reply to JasonKnight Nor Fort Wayne, IN although that was with a WRT54GS router running DD-WRT although that shouldn't make a difference.
I'm filing this under suspicious rumor for the time being. A single anonymous user with no corroborating evidence. Others have said the new firmware has defaulted to DHCP, but no one else in the country has DHCP working except for one person so far. -- Quis custodiet custodes ipsos? |

1 edit | I just tried it here in DE as well - and DHCP is working!
I pulled a 72 range IP - and have a gatway IP of 72.x.x.1 just like I used to with cable.
Even my gateway address in ping plots changed from a 10.x.x.x to the 72.x.x.1 address.
Hmmmmm...I'm just wondering if I should switch back to PPPOE until we're told to change.
And, as may be expected, my 1st speed test under DHCP came back a little quicker - ~150k download faster and up was faster by about 20k -- "ONE team - ONE city - ONE dream!!" |

Did you just change over to DHCP on the router with your username and password? -- Market go up. Market go down. |

| I'll bet VZ is in the process of changing over to DHCP. So this would mean those who switched to fios recently can go PPPoE or DHCP. Those who have been with fios for a while will be stuck on DHCP until VZ decides to move everyone over. I wouldn't expect the change soon - as all existing users would have to do one of two things; change the connection type in their router to DHCP or upgrade the firmware to change it for them. |

I just flipped the 604 to DHCP and it came back with no IP. Told it to renew and it dropped the subnet and gateway too. Changed back to PPPOE and got the same IP back.
Are you business or residential service? Did you change firmware? |

join:2004-09-14 Needham, MA | I have residential service and I downloaded the firmware posted here. After performing the firmware update the router automatically switched to DHCP. |

 JohnA Premium join:2003-09-16 Pittsburgh, PA | I updated the firmware, and got the same effect as just a manual switch to DHCP. No go. Got my same IP back again, when I put it back on PPPOE. |
