Connectivity

Connectivity > Local Network
Your router ships with the most common settings, and several settings are configured
during setup. You may never have to change these settings.
LAN IP Address
The router's IP address on your Wi-Fi. If you change this address, you'll have to reconnect
your devices to your router.
Subnet Mask
The router's subnet mask on your Wi-Fi. It is used to divide a network into subnets so
information can be routed correctly to computers and devices.
DHCP Server
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is enabled by default. DHCP assigns IP
addresses as needed to devices connected to your Wi-Fi.
DHCP Starting Address
The value that the DHCP server starts with when issuing IP addresses.
DHCP Ending Address
The value that the DHCP server ends with when issuing IP addresses.
DHCP Lease Time
The amount of time a Wi-Fi user is allowed connection to the router with her current IP
address. When the time has expired, the user will be automatically assigned a new IP
address, or the lease will be renewed.
