Disabling the DHCP Server
To disable DHCP, click to select the No DHCP option and click on the Apply button. Choosing this option requires that workstations on the local network must be configured manually or use another DHCP server to obtain IP settings.
If you configure IP settings manually, make sure to use IP addresses in the subnet of the Router. You will need to use the Router’s IP address as the Default Gateway for the workstation in order to provide Internet access.
DHCP Settings menu with DHCP disabled
To manually configure IP settings on Windows workstations, open the TCP/IP Properties menu and select the “Use the following IP address” option. You will need to supply the IP address, Subnet mask and Default gateway for each workstation. The example here also uses manually configured DNS settings.
