WiFi 6 AX1800 Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAX204
• DNS server IP address
To change the DHCP pool of IP addresses that the access point assigns:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
access point network.
2. Enter http//www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
If you are not connected to the access point network but to the same network as the
access point, enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point. If you do not
know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the access point when you cannot
use routerlogin.net on page 27.
A login window displays.
If your browser does not display the login window but displays a security message
and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after initial setup on
page 30.
3. Enter the access point local device password.
The local device password is the one that you specified. The local device password
is case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Setup > LAN Setup.
The LAN Setup page displays.
5. Make sure that the Use Router as DHCP Server check box is selected.
This check box is selected by default.
6. Specify the range of IP addresses that the router assigns for the LAN subnet:
• In the Starting IP Address field, enter the lowest number in the range.
This IP address must be in the same LAN subnet.
• In the Ending IP Address field, enter the number at the end of the range of IP
addresses.
This IP address must be in the same LAN subnet.
7. To change the DHCP lease time, from the DHCP Lease Time menu, select a period
from 1 hour to 24 hours.
By default, the period is 24 hours. When the lease time expires, the DHCP server
releases the IP address, and a DHCP client must reconnect to get a new (or the same)
IP address from the DHCP server.
8. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
