  • IP Address – Enter the IP address of your router (factory default: 192.168.0.1).
  • Subnet Mask – An address code that determines the size of the network. Normally use 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask.
  • DHCP – Enable or Disable the DHCP server. If you disable the Server, you must have another DHCP server within your network or else you must configure the address of your PC manually.
  • Start IP Address – Specify an IP address for the DHCP server to start with when assigning IP address. The default start address is 192.168.0.2.
  • End IP Address – Specify an IP address for the DHCP Server to end with when assigning IP address. The default end address is 192.168.0.254.
  • Lease Time – The Lease Time is the amount of time a network user will be allowed connection to the router with their current dynamic IP address. Enter the amount of time in minutes and the user will be “leased” this dynamic IP address. After the time is up, the user will be assigned a new dynamic IP address automatically.
  • Static IP – IP/MAC binding function, the system will assign a fixed IP address to the MAC according to the rules.

Note:

  1. If you change the IP Address of LAN, you must use the new IP address to login to the CPE router.
  2. If the new LAN IP address you set is not in the same subnet, the IP address pool of the DHCP server will change at the same time, while the Virtual Server and DMZ Host will not take effect until they are re-configured.
