1200 to 1500 range. For most DSL users, it is recommended to use the value 1492. By default, MTU is set at 1500 when disabled.

Network Setup

•Gateway IP. The values for the Router’s Local IP Address and Subnet Mask are shown here. In most cases, keeping the default values will work.

•Local IP Address. The default value is 192.168.1.1.

•Subnet Mask. The default value is 255.255.255.0.

•Network Address Server Settings (DHCP). A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server automatically assigns an IP address to each PC on your network for you. Unless you already have one, it is highly recommended that you leave the Router enabled as a DHCP server.

•Local DHCP Server. DHCP is already enabled by factory default. If you already have a DHCP server on your network, set the Router’s DHCP option to Disable. If you disable DHCP, remember to assign a static IP address to the Router.

•Start IP Address. Enter a value for the DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. This value must be 192.168.1. 2 or greater, because the default IP address for the Router is 192.168.1.1.

•Number of Address. Enter the maximum number of PCs that you want the DHCP server to assign IP addresses to. This number cannot be greater than 254 (the Router’s IP address must be accounted for, effective available IP addresses is no more than 253). In order to determine the DHCP IP Address range, add the starting IP address (e.g., 100) to the number of DHCP users. By default, as shown in Figure 6-9, add 100 to 50, and the range is 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.149.

•DHCP Address Range. The range of DHCP addresses is displayed here.

•Time Setting. This is where you set the time for your Router. You can set the time and date manually or automatically, by setting the time zone.
