R6250 Smart WiFi Router
• Get an IP address dynamically from the other router. The other router on the
network assigns an IP address to this router while this router is in AP mode.
• Fixed IP address (not recommended). Use this setting if you want to manually
assign a specific IP address to this router while it is in AP mode. Using this option
effectively requires advanced network experience.
Note: If the other router or gateway in your network has wireless capability,
NETGEAR recommends that you use different wireless settings on this
router to avoid interference. You can also disable the wireless radio on
the other router or gateway and use your router only for wireless client
access.
5. Click the Apply button.
The IP address of the router changes, and you are disconnected. To reconnect, close
and restart your web browser, and type http://www.routerlogin.net.
Dynamic DNS
Internet service providers (ISPs) assign numbers called IP addresses to identify each
Internet account. Most ISPs use dynamically assigned IP addresses. This means that the IP
address can change at any time. You can use the IP address to access your network
remotely, but most people don’t know what their IP addresses are or when this number
changes.
To make it easier to connect, you can get a free account with a Dynamic DNS service that
lets you use a domain name to access your home network. To use this account, you must set
up the router to use Dynamic DNS. Then the router notifies the Dynamic DNS service
provider whenever its IP address changes. When you access your Dynamic DNS account,
the service finds the current IP address of your home network and automatically connects
you.
If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x), the Dynamic
DNS service does not work because private addresses are not routed on the Internet.
