1.4.1 STATIC IP
The default IP address of the LAN interface of an 802.11A/G ACCESS POINT
is a private IP address of 192.168.1.1, and a network mask of 255.255.255.0.
This means IP addresses of other devices on the LAN should be in the range
of 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254.
This IP address can be modified to either a different address in this same
subnet or to an address in a different subnet, depending on the existing
network settings (if there is any) or user's preferences.
1.4.2 AUTOMATIC IP
The 802.11A/G ACCESS POINT can also be configured to "obtain" an IP
address automatically from a DHCP server on the network. This address is
called "dynamic" because it is only dynamically assigned to the device, which
may change depends on the IP assignment policy used by the DHCP server
on the network. Since the IP address in this case may change from time to
time, this method is not recommended - unless the user uses UPnP or other
management tools that do not depend on a fixed IP address.
