I was using isc-dhcp and had this behaviour too:
https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/dhcp/-/issues/177
I switched to kea-dhcp4 and it fixed it.
I've since done a distro upgrade and it's gone flaky again.
I've no idea how to diagnose signal quality from the data I can get from the
wiser
For what it's worth, I also have a wiser thermostat and hand out a static IP
with kea. No issues here.
No bootp as far as I know, and any historical unreliability has been
signal-related.
Happy to replicate any tests (dhcpdump etc.) on my sort-of-working environment.

I wonder, if this was the case, would it work at all ?
This started misbehaving (having worked reliably) on 01/01/2024 – and has been
steadily getting more unreliable.

fantastic and thanks for confirming. we have very static network and only
new DT are added to our network when replaced or for a new user.
this along with dhcp - using this

On Tue,
If I understand what you are doing correctly, yes, it will work. I am
running a kea server the same way. All the configuration is in the config
files and the host reservations are in the MySQL database.

Hi All,
I am interested in utilizing mariadb as the backend for host reservations,
without the need for a dhcp pool. The subnet and other relevant information
will still be stored in the dhcp4 configuration file. I believe that using
a database will not hinder kea from utilizing the defined
Is that device using BOOTP instead of DHCP by any chance? If so, you might
need the Bootp kea hook library. But that's just a guess.

This is basically a central heating timer with a wifi adapter.
I can't set a static IP on it so it is dependent on working DHCP (and wifi) to
stay connected to the network.
I'm seeing the kea-dhcp server not
