DHCP Settings

By default, the router functions as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, allowing it to assign IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers connected to the router’s LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of the router. IP addresses are assigned to the attached computers from a pool of addresses specified in this screen. Each pool address is tested before it is assigned to avoid duplicate addresses on the LAN.

For most applications, the default DHCP and TCP/IP settings of the router are satisfactory.

Use Router as DHCP Server

If another device on your network is the DHCP server, or if you manually configure the network settings of all of your computers, clear the Use Router as DHCP Server check box on the LAN Setup screen. Otherwise, leave it selected.

Specify the pool of IP addresses to be assigned by filling in the Starting IP Address and Ending IP Address fields. These addresses should be part of the same IP address subnet as the router’s LAN IP address. Using the default addressing scheme, you should define a range between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254, although you might want to save part of the range for devices with fixed addresses.

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

•An IP address from the range you have defined.

•Subnet mask.

•Gateway IP address is the router’s LAN IP address.

•Primary DNS server, if you entered a primary DNS address in the Broadband Settings screen; otherwise, the router’s LAN IP address.

•Secondary DNS server, if you entered a secondary DNS address in the Broadband Settings screen.

•WINS server (Windows Internet Naming Service server) determines the IP address associated with a particular Windows computer. A WINS server records and reports a list of names and IP address of Windows computers on its local network. If you connect to a remote network that contains a WINS server, enter the server’s IP address here. This procedure allows your computers to browse the network using the Network Neighborhood feature of Windows.

Reserved IP Addresses

When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer always receives the same IP address each time it accesses the router’s DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses should be assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings.

To reserve an IP address:

1. Log in to the router as described in Log In to Your Router on page 17.
