Disable the DHCP server for a LAN subnet

By default, the router functions as a DHCP server for the default LAN subnet (LAN1).
The router assigns IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all devices
connected to the LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of the
router.
You can use another device on your network as the DHCP server or specify the network
settings of all your computers.
Note: If you disable the DHCP server for the default LAN subnet and do not specify
another DHCP server in another LAN subnet or no other DHCP server is available on
your network, you must set your computer IP addresses manually so that they can access
the router.
