Change the LAN TCP/IP Settings
The router is preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act as a DHCP server. The
router’s default LAN IP configuration is as follows:
• LAN IP address. 192.168.1.1
• Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0
These addresses are part of the designated private address range for use in private networks and are
suitable for most applications. If your network requires a different IP addressing scheme, you can change
these settings.
You might want to change these settings if you need a specific IP subnet that one or more devices on the
network uses, or if you use competing subnets with the same IP scheme.
To change the LAN TCP/IP settings:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your Orbi network.
2. Enter orbilogin.com.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the admin user name and password.
