TG582N issuing DHCP NAK dispite DHCP being disabled

Hi
OpenReach have finally upgraded my line to FTTC and I now have a shiny new TG582N from PlusNet and a 40mb FTTC connection.
Since I have an SBS2011 server supplying IP's via its DHCP service I disabled the DHCP server on the TG582N. However, all the event logs on my client PC's are now showing DHCP NAK's coming from the IP of the Router whenever they request or renew an IP address. So despite being disabled the router is still responding, albeit with an error, to DHCP requests on the network from both wireless and wired clients. The clients do get an IP from the server and the network is functional it's just the annoying errors in the event logs.
The firmware on the router is 8.C.M.0. is this the latest?
Is there anything else I need to do to disable DHCP on the router other than removing the tick from the DHCP box on the configuration screen of the interface?
Is this a known problem?
Is there an updated firmware available.
Thanks in advance
Mark

Thanks Adam
I've attached a snip of the event log entries.

Wondering if removing that DHCP tick tells the DHCP server not to hand out IPs but doesn't actually disable the server?
If you telnet into the router and run the command
dhcp server config
does it say State: enabled?
If so you could try running
dhcp server config state=disabled
saveall
to see if that stops it issuing NAKs.
For information
dhcp server debug stats
will list the server operational state and response counts.

The event log you've posted shows "denied by the DHCP sever 192.168.7.1"
That's not the routers DHCP server IP address unless you've changed it.

Hi npr
I should have mentioned that the router is configured on the 192.168.7.0 network as 192.168.7.1 while the SBS server is on 192.168.7.2 so it is the Router that is NACKing the requests. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Hi spraxyt
You've hit the nail on the head. Didn't think to telnet into the box. Looks like its far more configurable through that interface.
DHCP Server config showed it as enabled! Set it to disabled and no more errors.
Thanks for the advice much appreciated.

Glad to hear that's solved the problem.
The telnet interface does provide more scope for router configuration, and for getting it wrong - for which the reset button can come in handy.
One command sometimes of use is
syslog msgbuf show hist=enabled
which lists all entries in the system log buffer, rather than the abbreviated version shown by the GUI.
