The End IP Address is the last IP address the DHCP server issues. The ending
address cannot exceed the subnet limit of 254, so the maximum value for the
End IP Address based on the default address is 192.168.1.254.

Changing the Bridge/Router’s IP Address
You can change the Bridge/Router’s IP address or specify that it is set by DHCP on the
Ethernet Configuration (Local > Ethernet) screen.
1. Select an IP Address Assignment type. The IP address assignment can be static or
assigned dynamically by a DHCP server. Select:
— DHCP if you have another DHCP server on the network
— Static if the Bridge/Router is the DHCP server for your network
2. If you select Static, enter an IP Address and Subnet Mask.
The DHCP server must have a fixed IP address. The DHCP server cannot move or
change because clients log onto the DHCP server to obtain IP addresses.
The default IP address is 192.168.1.1 and the default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. This subnet mask allows the Bridge/Router to support 253 users,
which is its maximum.
3. Enter a Gateway address. The gateway is the routing device used to forward all
traffic that is not addressed to a station within the local subnet. Your ISP supplies
the Gateway Address.
4. Enter a Hostname. The hostname can be any alphanumeric word that does not
contain spaces.
5. Click on Apply.
