DSL-2640BT to connect to other computer or Ethernet devices.
DHCP Client status
Your DSL-2640BT ADSL Router is configured, by default, to be a DHCP server. This means that it can assign an IP address, subnet mask, and a default gateway
address to computers on your LAN. The default range of IP addresses the DSL-2640BT will assign are from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254. Your computer (or computers)
needs to be configured to obtain an IP address automatically (that is, they need to be configured as DHCP clients.)
It is recommended that you collect and record this information here, or in some other secure place, in case you have to re-configure your ADSL connection in the future.
Once you have the above information, you are ready to setup and configure your DSL-2640BT ADSL Router.
