Change the LAN TCP/IP Settings

The router is preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act as a DHCP server. The router’s default LAN IP configuration is as follows:

•LAN IP address. 192.168.1.1

•Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0

These addresses are part of the designated private address range for use in private networks and are suitable for most applications. If your network requires a different IP addressing scheme, you can change these settings

You might want to change these settings if you need a specific IP subnet that one or more devices on the network uses, or if you have competing subnets with the same IP scheme.
