LAN Setup

The LAN Setup screen allows configuration of LAN IP services such as Dynamic Host

Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Routing Information Protocol (RIP).

The router is shipped preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act

as a DHCP server

. The router’s default LAN IP configuration is:

• L

AN IP address. 192.168.1.1

• Sub

net mask. 255.255.255.0

These addresses are part of the designated priva

te address range for use in private networks

and should be suitable for most applications. If your network requires a different IP

addressing scheme, you can change these settings in the LAN Setup screen.

Note: If you change the LAN IP address of the router while connected

through the browser, you are disconnected, and must open a new

connection to the new IP address and log in again.

1. Select Adv

anced > Setup > LAN Setup.

2. Enter the settings that you want to customize.
