LAN IP address settings [router mode]

If the AP is in router mode, the LAN subnet defines the LAN IP address settings for the
AP, including the IP address at which you can access the AP over the local browser UI,
the DHCP IP address settings, and the Router Information Protocol (RIP) settings.
Note: The information in the following sections is not required if the AP is operating
in AP mode. In AP mode, the LAN IP settings can be provided by the routing device to
which the AP connects. Therefore, in AP mode, the LAN IP settings are masked out in
the local browser UI.
Change the LAN IP address and subnet settings [router
mode]
If the AP is in router mode, it uses private IP addresses on the LAN side and functions
as a DHCP server. The AP's LAN IP configuration is as follows:
• LAN IP address: 192.168.1.1 (if the AP is in router mode, this is the same as
www.routerlogin.net or www.routerlogin.com)
• Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
These addresses are part of the designated private address range for use in private
networks and are suitable for most applications. The IP address and subnet mask identify
which addresses are local to a specific device and which must be reached through a
gateway or router. If you need a specific IP subnet that one or more devices on the
network use, or if competing subnets use the same IP scheme, you can change the LAN
IP address settings.
Note: If you change the default LAN IP address settings, the IP address range for the
default DHCP server also changes (see Manage the DHCP server address pool [router
mode] on page 76).
To change the LAN IP address and subnet settings:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to a WiFi
network or LAN port on the AP.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
A login window displays.
If your browser displays a security warning, dismiss the warning. For more information,
see Dismiss a browser security warning on page 39.
3. Enter the AP local device password.
