Only one of several Windows 10 hosts not picking up static lease IP
-
I have a subnet serviced by DHCP. I have a single one of several Windows 10 hosts that not picking up static lease IP. I have defined a static lease for that host’s MAC address. Every time Wi-Fi on that host turns off and on again or it reboots, it picks up its old IP address again, which is from the DHCP server’s general address pool range.
Why would this be?

@DominikHoffmann It comes first in the list. Click the trashcan icon on its listing.

@chpalmer: There is no trashcan icon on the listing for the host.

For troubleshooting I have pulled the IP address the host had previous out of the address pool range and rebooted it. It came back with a different address from the address pool range, instead of picking the one from the static lease that matches its MAC address. So strange!
