Subnet Mask | Type in an address code that determines the size of the network. |
| (Default: 255.255.255.0/ 24) |
Enable DHCP | DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The |
| router by factory default acts a DHCP server for your network |
| so it automatically dispatch related IP settings to any local user |
| configured as a DHCP client. It is highly recommended that you |
| leave the router enabled as a DHCP server if you do not have a |
| DHCP server for your network. |
| You can configure the router to serve as a DHCP server for the |
| 2nd subnet. Check the box to enable DHCP server setting. |
Start IP Address | Enter a value of the IP address pool for the DHCP server to start |
| with when issuing IP addresses. If the 2nd IP address of your |
| router is 220.135.240.1, the starting IP address must be |
| 220.135.240.2 or greater, but smaller than 220.135.240.254. |
IP Pool Counts | Enter the number of IP addresses in the pool. The maximum is |
| 10. For example, if you type 3 and the 2nd IP address of your |
| router is 220.135.240.1, the range of IP address by the DHCP |
| server will be from 220.135.240.2 to 220.135.240.11. |
Lease Time | It allows you to set the leased time for the specified PC. |
Force DNS manual setting | Force router to use DNS servers in this page instead of DNS |
| servers given by the Internet Access server (PPPoE, PPTP, |
| L2TP or DHCP server). |
Primary IP Address | You must specify a DNS server IP address here because your |
| ISP should provide you with usually more than one DNS Server. |
| If your ISP does not provide it, the router will automatically |
| apply default DNS Server IP address: 194.109.6.66 to this field. |
Secondary IP Address | You can specify secondary DNS server IP address here because |
| your ISP often provides you more than one DNS Server. If your |
| ISP does not provide it, the router will automatically apply |
| default secondary DNS Server IP address: 194.98.0.1 to this |
| field. |
| The default DNS Server IP address can be found via Online |
| Status: |
| If both the Primary IP and Secondary IP Address fields are left |
| empty, the router will assign its own IP address to local users as |
| a DNS proxy server and maintain a DNS cache. |
| If the IP address of a domain name is already in the DNS cache, |
| the router will resolve the domain name immediately. Otherwise, |
| the router forwards the DNS query packet to the external DNS |
| server by establishing a WAN connection. |
After finishing all the settings here, please click OK to activate them.
