Hey guys, I have a Linksys EA6700 running DD-WRT v3.0-r40559 std (08/06/19) and I'm running into an issue that I have not been able to confirm if it is a expected behavior, whenever I set static leases the IP is assigned, but if I select to reset the router *or I have to disconnect it for any reason) the fields go blank and eventually the router forgets about the assignment, which is a real pain to manage port forwards.

https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Static_DHCP <-- you have to save/apply after each lease is added. IF it's still not working right, then there's a larger problem. Not sure how updated that wiki is, but I don't think you need to check either 'use nvram...' or 'use jffs...' on that page.
Thanks for the replies, I checked the NVRAM and it was up to 34kb, but I found and script that lowered it down to 25kb, I'll try to add the lines one by one using IE on my other PC (main one has linux) and see if it works now

Firefox ESR on Linux (Debian) usually behaves well for me. Firefox ESR 52.9.0 on MacOSX seems to be much more friendly than Quantum. I generally don't use Windows for accessing the WebUI, but I have used NT4 / IE6SP1 out of pure curiosity...
