I have 2 routers at home, but I cannot receive IP address from any 1 router. What happened?

Your PC will not be able to receive any IP address because there is a conflict in IP provided by the 2 routers at the same time.

In technical term, it is causing a broadcast storm, where both routers are broadcasting to all hosts to issue an DHCP IP address offer .


Disabling either 1 of the router’s DHCP function will solve the issue.
