Configuring DHCP
To configure DHCP settings, DHCP must be enabled (Advanced settings > Router > LAN >
DHCP Server).
You can set the following DHCP settings in Advanced settings > Router > LAN:
● DHCP IP Address Range — This is the starting and ending address of the range of IP
addresses available for the device to dynamically (that is, not permanently) assign to
computers connected to it.
The start address must be 192.168.0.10 or above.
The ending address must be 192.168.0.50 or below.
● DHCP Lease Time — This is the amount of time, in minutes, a computer can use its
assigned IP address before it is required to renew the lease. After this time is up, the
computer is automatically assigned a new dynamic IP address.
Enter a number between 2 and 10080.
● Max DHCP Clients — This is the number of DHCP addresses that can be assigned and
active at one time. It's recommended you set this to a number greater than the number
of Wi-Fi users.
● DNS Mode — This specifies how the DNS servers (that the DHCP clients are to
communicate with) are obtained. (See
● DHCP Static IP Assignment List — You can assign a permanent (static) IP address to
a device on your network, and view the static IP assignment list. (See "DHCP Static IP
Assignment List", below.)
DHCP Static IP Assignment List
With DHCP, IP addresses are assigned dynamically; devices typically don't have a permanent
IP address.
However, in some cases you might want to assign a static (permanent) IP address to a device,
while still using DHCP for the rest of the devices on your network. This is also known as "DHCP
