Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Disable the DHCP server in the modem?
After all, that's the one stealing the requests.

I'm not surprised it's issuing an address that it should already know about. That's one of the older rules about setting up DHCP: don't manually set an address in it's pool.

New Not available
This is a "simplified" firmware installed by the vendor. The choice is either use DHCP, and only issue the one address; or share the public IP assigned to the modem when it connects.


Hmmm ... I was really sure I wasn't set up that way, but that's the one thing I don't think I've tried switching. Off to try again ...

New Ouch. :-(
I'm glad I can buy and use whatever DSL modem I like with my ISP. Locked-down and/or "simplified" firmware sucks.

Perhaps the router used to be hiding the DHCP requests from the modem, as Scoenye suggested, and isn't anymore.
