Specify the IP Addresses That the Modem Router Assigns

By default, the modem router acts as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. The modem router assigns IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers connected to the LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of the modem router.

These addresses must be part of the same IP address subnet as the modem router’s LAN IP address. Using the default addressing scheme, define a range between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254, although you can save part of the range for devices with fixed addresses.

The modem router delivers the following parameters to any LAN device that requests DHCP:

An IP address from the range that you defined

Subnet mask

Gateway IP address (the modem router’s LAN IP address)

DNS server IP address (the modem router’s LAN IP address)

To specify the pool of IP addresses that the modem router assigns:

1. Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the network.

2. Type http://routerlogin.net or http://192.168.0.1. A login screen displays.

3. Enter the modem router user name and password.

The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are case-sensitive.

The BASIC Home screen displays.

4.Select ADVANCED > Setup > LAN Setup.
