You can configure the LAN IP address to suit your preference. Many users will find it convenient to use the default settings together with DHCP
service to manage the IP settings for their private network. The IP address of the Router is the base address used for DHCP. In order to use the
Router for DHCP on your LAN, the IP address pool used for DHCP must be compatible with the IP address of the Router. The IP addresses
available in the DHCP IP address pool will change automatically if you change the IP address of the Router.
To access the LAN setting window, click the LAN button in the Setup directory.
To change the LAN IP Address or Subnet Mask, type in the desired
values and click the Save Settings button. You will be asked to reboot by
a pop-up window. Click OK to reboot the router.
You might need to re-configure your PC NIC settings to enter the Router's
web manager after reboot.

DHCP it becomes the default gateway for DHCP client connected to
it. Keep in mind that if you change the IP address of the Router the
range of IP addresses in the pool used for DHCP on the LAN will
also be changed. The IP address pool can be up to 253 IP
addresses.
