IP address for the Wireless Broadband Router, as seen from the
local LAN. Use the default value unless the address is already in
use or your LAN is using a different IP address range. In the
latter case, enter an unused IP Address from within the range
used by your LAN.
The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C")
networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN
segment to which the Wireless Broadband Router is attached
(the same value as the PCs on that LAN segment).
•
If Enabled, the Wireless Broadband Router will allocate IP
Addresses to PCs (DHCP clients) on your LAN when they
start up. The default (and recommended) value is Enabled.
•
If you are already using a DHCP Server, this setting must be
Disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be re-
configured to treat the Wireless Broadband Router as the
default Gateway. See the following section for further de-
tails.
•
The Start IP Address and Finish IP Address fields set the
values used by the DHCP server when allocating IP Ad-
dresses to DHCP clients. This range also determines the
number of DHCP clients supported.
See the following section for further details on using DHCP.
