Setting up your wireless router

Changing LAN settings

All settings for the internal LAN setup of your router can be viewed and changed here.

IP Address–The IP address is the internal IP address of your router. The default IP

address is 192.168.2.1. To access the Web-Based Advanced User Interface, type this

IP address into the address bar of your browser. This address can be changed if needed.

To change the IP address, type the new IP address and click Apply Changes. The IP

address you choose should be a non-routable IP.

Examples of a non-routable IP are: 192.168.x.x (where x is anywhere between 0 and

255), and 10.x.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255).

Subnet Mask–There is no need to change the subnet mask. This is a unique,

advanced feature of your router. It is possible to change the subnet mask if necessary;

however, do NOT make changes to the subnet mask unless you have a specific reason

to do so. The default setting is 255.255.255.0.

DHCP Server–The DHCP server function makes setting up a network very easy by

assigning IP addresses to each computer on the network automatically. The default

setting is On. The DHCP server can be turned OFF if necessary; however, in order to do

so you must manually set a static IP address for each computer on your network. To

turn off the DHCP server, select Off, then click Apply Changes.

IP Pool–The range of IP addresses set aside for dynamic assignment to the computers

on your network. The default is 2-100 (99 computers). If you want to change this

number, you can do so by entering a new starting and ending IP address and clicking

Apply Changes. The DHCP server can assign 100 IP addresses automatically. This

means that you cannot specify an IP address pool larger than 100 computers. For

example, starting at 50 means you have to end at 150 or lower so as not to exceed the

100-client limit. The starting IP address must be lower in number than the ending IP

address.
