	How Do I Configure My DOCSIS Residential Gateway?
Section	Field Description
	Starting IP Address
	Displays the starting address used by the built-in DHCP
	server to distribute Private LAN IP addresses. Because the
	device default IP address of the gateway is 192.168.0.1, the
	starting IP address must be 192.168.0.2 or greater, but
	smaller than 192.168.0.253. The default Starting IP Address
	is 192.168.0.10.
	Maximum Number of DHCP Users
	Enter the maximum number of users to which the DHCP server
	can assign IP addresses for use in the LAN. This number cannot
	be greater than 254 minus the starting IP address described
	above.
	Client Lease Time
	The Client Lease Time is the amount of time an IP address is
	valid. IP address leases are renewed automatically by your PC
	and other devices that use DHCP to obtain IP addresses. If a lease
	is allowed to expire, the IP address will be returned to the pool of
	available IP addresses that can be assigned by the DHCP server
	as new devices are added to your network. The default is 60
	minutes when the gateway is online.
	LAN Static DNS (Domain Name Server) 1-3
	DNS is used by a PC or other client devices to discover the public
	IP address associated with a URL or the name-based address of a
	website. You can manually specify which DNS servers are to be
	used by devices in your network by entering the IP addresses of
	those servers in these fields. Otherwise, the gateway will forward
	the DNCS server information from your service provider
	automatically. The default is to leave these fields blank.
Time Settings	Time Zone
	Select the time zone for your location. If your location follows
	daylight saving time, select Automatically adjust clock for
	daylight saving time.

Setup > DDNS

Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) provides the residential gateway (that may have a changing IP address) with a host name or URL resolvable by network applications through standard DNS queries. DDNS is useful when you are hosting your own website, FTP server, or other server behind the device. Before using this feature, you need to sign up for DDNS service.

Select the DDNS tab to open the Setup DDNS page.
