Address
By default, the extender is set to obtain an IP address automatically from the
front router. If you want to use a specific IP address appropriate to your network
demand, please refer to the steps below.
We do NOT recommend you change the IP address unless you
are quite sure about the IP setting for special network
demand, random changes may lead to Internet disconnection.

Settings->Network webpage.

gateway manually.


determines the size of the network (255.255.255.0 by default).

address of your router.

DHCP Server

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The DHCP Server will
automatically assign dynamic IP addresses to the devices on the network. This
protocol simplifies network management and allows new wireless devices to be
set to IP addresses automatically.
To use the DHCP server function of the device, you should configure
all computers as "Obtain an IP Address automatically" mode.
