Is that because your modem assigns a private address if it has no upstream connection? Cable modems typically do that (192.168.100.1 is their standardized IPv4 address).
That's exactly what the "Reject Leases From" feature is for (in the WAN interface's DHCP client configuration).

This is exactly what my modem does, so I set it to reject those leases. Works like a charm until the cable modem is back up and functioning.
