WX-5525R Dual Band AP Router
If you disable the Router's DHCP server function, you must configure the IP Address,
Subnet Mask, and DNS for each network computer (note that each IP Address must be
unique).
DHCP Server: Click the Enable radio button to enable the Router's DHCP server option.
If you already have a DHCP server on your network or you do not want a
DHCP server, then click the Disable radio button.
Starting IP Address: Enter a numerical value for the DHCP server to start with when
issuing IP addresses. Because the Router's default IP address is 192.168.1.1,
the Starting IP Address must be 192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than
192.168.1.253. The default Starting IP Address is 192.168.1.100.
Maximum Number of DHCP Users: Enter the maximum number of PCs that you want
the DHCP server to assign IP addresses to. The absolute maximum is 253 -
possible if 192.168.1.100 is your starting IP address. The default is 51.
Client Lease Time: The Client Lease Time is the amount of time a network user will be
allowed connection to the Router with their current dynamic IP address.
Enter the amount of time, in minutes, that the user will be "leased" this
dynamic IP address. The default is 0 minutes, which means one day.
Static DNS 1-3: The Domain Name System (DNS) is how the Internet translates domain
or website names into Internet addresses or URLs. Your ISP will provide
you with at least one DNS Server IP Address. If you wish to utilize another,
enter that IP Address in one of these fields. You can enter up to three DNS
Server IP Addresses here. The Router will utilize these for quicker access to
functioning DNS servers.
WINS: The Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) manages each PC's interaction
with the Internet. If you use a WINS server, enter that server's IP Address
here. Otherwise, leave this blank.
Currently Assigned: Click the DHCP Clients Table button to see a list of PCs assigned
IP addresses by the Router. For each PC, the list shows the client hostname,
MAC address, IP address, and the amount of DHCP client lease time left.
Click the Refresh button to display the most current information.
Click Apply to save your settings.
