LAN

You can configure the LAN IP address to suit your preference. Many users will find it convenient
to use the default settings together with DHCP service to manage the IP settings for their private
network. The IP address of the router is the base address used for DHCP. In order to use the
router for DHCP on your LAN, the IP address pool used for DHCP must be compatible with the
IP address of the router. The IP addresses available in the DHCP IP address pool will change
automatically if you change the IP address of the router. See the next section for information on
DHCP setup.
To access the LAN IP menu, click the LAN link in the Home directory.
LAN Settings – Router IP address menu
To change the LAN IP Address or Subnet Mask, type in the desired values and click the Apply
button. Your web browser should automatically be redirected to the new IP address. You will
asked to login again to the router's web manager.
This IP address is private to your internal network and cannot be seen on the Internet. The
default IP Address is 192.168.1.1 and the Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0.
In addition, the router can be configured to relay DNS from your ISP or another available service
to workstations on your LAN. When DNS Relay is Enabled, the router will accept DNS requests
from hosts on the LAN and forward them to the ISP (or alternative) DNS servers. Alternatively,
you may also disable the DNS relay and configure hosts on your LAN to use DNS servers
directly. Most users who are using the router for DHCP service on the LAN and are using DNS
servers on the ISP's network, will leave DNS relay enabled.
