G1100 DHCP Changes do not survive a reboot

I am changing the default DHCP assigned IP Address range to shorten it as I have some static IP Addresses that I don't want included in the scope (default is 192.168.1.2-192.168.1.254 - I am changing it to end at 192.168.1.200).  This works okay when I "Apply" the change.  However, I noticed that if the router reboots (loses power or is rebooted for whatever reason) the router reverts back to the original setting.   All my wifi and other changes survive a reboot but the DHCP scope does not.  Does anyone know if there is a fix or workaround to this problem?

If you do not have FIOS TV too, you can:

#1 Convert to the wire from the ONT to that NAT router's location to ethernet (if is not ethernet already).

#2 Get and use your own RJ-45 WAN port router.

#3 Profit 🙂
