Keep in mind that if you change the IP address of the Router, you must change the range of IP addresses in the pool used for DHCP on the LAN.

To display the DHCP Server menu, click the DHCP button in the Home directory. Active DHCP Clients appear listed in the DHCP Client List below the configuration menu. Information about DHCP clients includes the IP address, MAC address, host name and lease time are displayed in the list.
