Disable the DHCP Server Feature in the Router

By default, the router functions as a DHCP server. The router assigns IP, DNS server, and default gateway
addresses to all computers 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.

1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the router network.
2.
Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.

The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time that you logged in.
The user name and password are case-sensitive.
