PPP IP Address | The IP address to be used during a PPP |
| session. This defaults to the IP address |
| of the interface. |
Use the followingg static IP address | (Default) This is the IP address of your |
| Modem on your local network. This IP |
| address is specified on all computers |
| on your network as the Gateway IP |
| address. The IP address is also the IP |
| address you type into your browser lo- |
| cation bar to login to your modem’s web |
| interface. |
Note: If Server and Relay are turned off you need to assign IP addresses within the same range to the PCs connected to the modem else they will not be able to communicate with the modem. For example, if your mo- dem’s Ethernet interface address is 192.168.1.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 you need to assign static addresses starting at 192.168.1.2 up to 192.168.1.253.
If you disable the DHCP server in the Modem you will need to either manually (stati- cally) assign IP address information to each computer or use another device/com- puter as DHCP server.
Note: It is not recommended that you have more than one DHCP server enabled on your network.
