REB175P USER'S GUIDE
IP Address: The IP address of the Range Extender / Bridge.
Subnet Mask: The subnet of the Range Extender / Bridge.
Default Gateway: The access point to another network, normally a Router.
DHCP Client Range: The range of IP addresses provided by the DHCP server is defined by this field. You can
limit how many IP addresses are used in your network by setting a smaller or larger range.
DHCP Lease Time: The amount of time each device is given a specific IP is decided by the DHCP lease time.
After the Lease Time expires, the DHCP server will assign another IP address to the device.
Set Static DHCP: This allows specific devices to be given a specific IP address each time the device connects to
the network. The DHCP server will always assign the same IP address to the same device. This feature is often
used for shared devices such as network printers or servers.
Auto DHCP Server: The Auto-DHCP Server feature automatically manages the IP addresses within your
network. When connected to a network that has a DHCP server enabled, the Range Extender/Bridge will
automatically obtain an IP from the network's DHCP server and disable the DHCP server on the Range Extender
/ Bridge to avoid any IP assignment conflicts. For users that are not familiar with how this works, it is
recommended to leave Auto-DHCP server enabled on this page.
