I'm confused. Firstly, is the static IP you're talking about for your computer or for the router? Secondly, are the static addresses set on the computer? If so, why would they disappear and/or why would the interface change state just because the remote device and/or network disappears for a while? If not, I'm totally lost!
The static IP is for my computer. I setup the static IP, subnet mask, and gateway address in YaST Network Settings, left DNS blank, and those
This is the culprit. You have to provide an IP address for the DNS also. With DHCP, you get also the value for the DNS. With a static address you do not get this address, so you have to provide that address with the other static values.
settings work. I'm not saying the remote interface changed state, but for some reason switching to DHCP and then back to a static IP makes it work again. After the router loses power and comes back up. It's going ethernet > client bridge router > main router, and the client bridge router is a wireless link to the main router, so DHCP is obviously turned off on the client bridge router and is handled by the main router. I wonder if it's something to do with the client bridge in this case (DD-WRT).
