IP Address | IP address for the Wireless Router, as seen from the local LAN. Use |
| the default value unless the address is already in use or your LAN is |
| using a different IP address range. In the latter case, enter an unused IP |
| Address from within the range used by your LAN. |
|
|
Subnet Mask | The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C") |
| networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN |
| segment to which the Wireless Router is attached (the same value as |
| the PCs on that LAN segment). |

| (DHCP clients) on your LAN when they start up. The default (and |
| recommended) value is Enabled. |

| Disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be |
| treat the Wireless Router as the default Gateway. See the |
| following section for further details. |
| • The Start IP Address and Finish IP Address fields set the values |
| used by the DHCP server when allocating IP Addresses to DHCP |
| clients. This range also determines the number of DHCP clients |
| supported. |
