LAN Setup
The LAN Setup screen allows configuration of LAN IP services such as DHCP and RIP.
These features can be accessed under Advanced in the router main menu.
The router is shipped preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side, and to act
as a DHCP server. The router default LAN IP configuration is:
• LAN IP ad
dress. 192
.168.0.1
• Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0
These add
resses are part of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)–d
esignated private
address range for use in private networks, and should be suitable in most applications. If your
network has a requirement to use a different IP addressing scheme, you can make those
changes in this screen.
Tip: If you change the LAN IP address of the router while connected through
the b
rowser, you will be disconnected, and so will others connected to
the router. To connect to the router, you have to open a new connection
to the new IP address and log in again. Others using the router have to
restart their computers to connect to the router again.
