Yes, if your still using the 655 as the main host router then it will control the DCHP.
Is the 860L running as a 2ndary AP?

Do you have reserved IP addresses set up for each device on the 655?

yes and yes

Besure when your using static IP addresses, use a IP address thats outside of the 655s DCHP IP address pool. Use something between 192.168.0.2 thru .99 or .200 thru .254.

I'd swap out the 655 for the 860L and test.

Maybe someone from the forums can review your configuration using Teamviewer.

I dont really wanna go back to the 860. It didnt have this problem when it was my main host router for about 6 months.  it was ok... but I like the QoS better on the 655. and the 655 seems quicker to respond/ load pages when surfing the web... plus the menus when you log into the 860 seemed a bit buggy... 

I'll just wait and see if this setting change makes a difference. and go from there...

Ok. You may need to factory reset, then turn OFF ALL devices. Save for one wired LAN PC.
Do a IP reservation on the LAN PC. Then turn on one more device and do a reservation. Keep doing a reservation on graduating devices until all are reserved.

I haven't seen this behavior before and presume this maybe a configuration issue.

Keep us posted.

IT should be able to handle at least 20. It's been a while since I've had my Rev B online however when I did last, I had around 15 devices. Never saw any issues. One thing you might do if this happens again, Turn OFF all devices accept for one wired PC. Factory reset, re-load v2.11 or v2.12 FW. Factory reset and reconfigure from scratch all doing this with IE or FF. Don't load any saved configuration from file. I might bring my Rev B out and test.  ::)

what other newer dlink routers use the same style QoS as the 655?

I know my dir827 did...

I dont like the QoS on the 860... and i think the newest dlink routers... the QoS is even different from that...

The 868L and 866L are the last old generation UI model routers. I love the 868L.  ;D

I actually had the house to myself this morning...

so I decided to factory reset my router(with the reset button on the back of the 655)... reload 2.11FW(with a wired connection)... factory reset again(with the reset button on the back of the 655)... setup the router from scratch. made sure to reserve the IP addresses 1 at a time... so i guess I will wait and see how it goes

i did notice i weird thing... the first time i factory reset the router by logging into the router (192.168.0.1) ... going to tools/ system/ restore factory defaults...  but when it was finished rebooting it didnt take me to the setup wizard page... like its supposed to after a factory reset.  plus some of my settings were saved... which of course they shouldnt be. thats why i did the reset with the switch on the back of the unit.

im pretty sure the last time i set up this router from scratch.. i did my factory defaults by logging into the router... maybe this had something to do with my problem the whole time?..?.. it wasnt actually factory defaulting properly... or resetting like it was supposed to...

Try clearing your browser cache after you do the factory reset. Exit the browser fully then re-open.

Hope the set up from scratch will resolve this. Keep us posted.
