Orbi Pro WiFi 6 AX5400 Router Model SXR50 and Orbi Pro WiFi 6 AX5400 Satellite Model SXS50
LAN settings
Although the default LAN settings work well for most situations, you can change the
settings for each of the five LANs on the router.
Change the default LAN 1 settings
LAN 1 is the default LAN that is assigned to the default VLAN profile with the name
Default and ID 1. You cannot change the VLAN profile for LAN 1.
By default, the router uses private IP addresses on the LAN side and functions as a DHCP
server. The router's default LAN IP configuration is as follows:
• LAN IP address: 192.168.1.1
• Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
These addresses are part of the designated private address range for use in private
networks and are suitable for most applications. If your network requires a different IP
addressing scheme, you can change these settings.
You might want to change these settings if you need a specific IP subnet that one or
more devices on the network uses, or if you use competing subnets with the same IP
scheme.
Note: The IP settings for LAN 1 can be automatically changed if the Orbi Pro WiFi 6
router detects a double NAT condition. (For more information about double NAT, visit
https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-double-NAT-and-why-is-it-bad.) The router can
detect this condition during the setup process if you select router mode even though
another router is already present in your network. If your Orbi Pro WiFi 6 router is
connected to another router that is already operating with the 192.168.1.x LAN scheme,
the LAN scheme of the Orbi Pro WiFi 6 router is automatically changed to 10.0.0.1, and
the DHCP address range is changed to 10.0.0.2–10.0.0.254.
To change the settings for the default LAN 1:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
Orbi network.
2. Enter orbilogin.com.
A login window displays.
If your browser does not display a login window but displays a security warning and
does not let you proceed, see What to do if you get a browser security warning on
page 29.
3. Enter the admin user name and password.
