R7000 DHCP Issue

Hello all! Since installing the DD-WRT v3.0-r31520M kongac (03/01/17) build that I am currently running on my R7000 router, it seems that the DHCP service is very selective about which devices it hands out IP addresses too. I have a wireless extender, a Netgear EX7000, in the mix which is functioning fine. Devices such as our phones and laptops access the internet fine through the repeater. However, there are devices like our Wii U and PS4 that will not connect to the wireless at all. I'm not sure what is causing this problem, and I've tried everything I can think of. I've tested with my personal hotspot just to make sure that the devices can connect to any sort of wireless connection and verified that they work over that method. I was mostly curious as to whether or not any other users running this build of DD-WRT were having issues with certain devices connecting to wireless.

Did you a) remove all that

Did you a) remove all that other stuff and see if the probelm devices can connect? b) are those problem devices connecting to the correct wireless B/G/N/AC? Because it sounds like you have created a monster. Your personal hot spot just increases the problem, it is not relevant.
