Dear All, I am facing a problem with my network which is i cannot take ip address ( obtaining ip address ) unless i switch off and switch on the router , I thought this problems from the router but i have changed with a new one and same problem happens , Any help please ??
 
Solution
Sounds like the DHCP server isnt configured in the right way then.

And depending on how you´ve built your network it may not work as intended.
I suggest you learn about VLan and redo the network configuration.

Atm it sounds like you have all your AP´s on the same subnet, therefore the server wont be able to send the other subnet adresses to the computers since it does not know where to send it.

Not from ISP , The problem from computers and mobile phones , Already we are in a business network not home , we have 2 subnets 192.168.2.x and 192.168.3.x the 2 subnet is full , I wonder how to let the DHCP server automatically assign ip's from the free one which is the 3 subnet :) .

i am supporting around 150 users and the router model is cisco WAP4410N , i have 3 routers from that model i make them as an access points to have full coverage of the WI-FI in the office , before it was working smooth but now i don't know what happens !
 
If you have to constantly restart the routers you may want to try updating firmware or look at replacing them. Constant restarted to make a router send out DHCP tends to mean near the end of the life cycle of a commercial router. I'd start looking in to SoHo or enterprise level routers.

Cisco WAP4410N is not a router, its a Accesspoint. The configuration needs to be changed in the DHCP server, are you using a physical server for that or a Router?
If a router, what model is it?
Are you using VLan to configure your network?
