Having the dhcp server assign the same IP based with an infinite lease
based upon the mac address is no different than a static IP address.
You could try putting in a very large number of minutes for the lease
time - or see if there is a firmware that will do that (imho it should
have the option)

Try 50000 in the lease time (over a month) and see if that does it for you.
