A WINS server records and reports a list of names and IP addresses of Windows PCs on its local network. If you connect to a remote network that contains a WINS server, enter the server’s IP address here. This allows your PCs to browse the network using the Network Neighborhood feature of Windows.

Reserved IP Addresses

When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer always receive the same IP address when it access the router’s DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should be assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings.

To reserve an IP address:

1.In the Address Reservation section on the LAN IP Setup screen, click Add.

2.In the IP Address field, type the IP address to assign to the computer or server. Choose an IP address from the router’s LAN subnet, such as 10.1.1.x.

3.Type the MAC address of the computer or server.

Tip: If the computer is already present on your network, you can copy its MAC address from the Attached Devices screen and paste it here.

4. Click Apply to enter the reserved address into the table.

Note: The reserved address will not be assigned until the next time the computer contacts the router’s DHCP server. You can reboot the computer, or access its

IP configuration, to force a DHCP release and renew.
