 1_0_1 | Hello, the wiki says that [https://openwrt.org/toh/linksys/lgs352c](Linksys LGS310C) is supported, but also mentions other models, for example the LGS328C; would it be compatible with the current firmware? | 15:53:59 |

 pitch | sooo.... i have changed a hostname for a device i own. i deleted /etc/dhcp.leases rebooted my router and APs, reconnected the device but still it shows with its old hostname. what am i missing here?? | 09:52:07 |
| pitch | and no, there is no explicit static binding with the old hostname. checked that. | 09:52:29 |
 Bart van Zoest | Did you reboot that device? | 09:53:15 |
| pitch | yes | 09:53:51 |
| pitch | forgot to mention that :) | 09:54:07 |
| Bart van Zoest | Does the device randomly assign itself a new mac address? | 09:55:23 |
| pitch | nope its an esp32. no os layer | 09:55:48 |
| pitch | basically sticks and stones | 09:55:59 |
| pitch | but the ip stays the same. that suggests for me that openWRT somehow 'remembers' | 09:57:43 |
 Przemek | as for IP staying the same, openwrt uses dnsmasq, and dnsmasq by default does the following:
Dnsmasq is designed to choose IP addresses for DHCP clients using a hash of the client's MAC address. This normally allows a client's address to remain stable long-term, even if the client sometimes allows its DHCP lease to expire. In this default mode IP addresses are distributed pseudo-randomly over the entire available address range.
taken from --dhcp-sequential-ip description in https://dnsmasq.org/docs/dnsmasq-man.html

| pitch | TIL. thanks i was not aware of that scheme. | 10:36:18 |
