It could be that your router only is able to assign a small number of
IPs, either by a configuration choice, or it's hard-coded.

If it's a hard-coded shortcoming, you'd be best to use something else
as your DHCP server (such as one of your computers, or a new router). 
Or, to switch off DHCP, and let another protocol handle address
assignment (ZeroConf, Bonjour, etc).

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny,
not a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
