support a larger number of users you can change the subnet
mask.

Default Gateway
The default gateway is the routing device used to forward all
traffic that is not addressed to a station within the local subnet.
Your ISP provides you with the IP address of the default gateway.

The host name is used in conjunction with the domain name to

The domain name is used in conjunction with the host name to

Enable DHCP Server
Enables/disables DHCP. By default, your router has the DHCP
server (LAN side) enabled. If you already have a DHCP server
running on your network, you must disable one of the two DHCP
servers.

Start IP
The Start IP Address is where the DHCP server starts issuing IP
addresses. This value must be greater than the IP address value
of the router. For example, if the IP address of the router is
192.168.1.1 (default), then the starting IP address must be
192.168.1.2 (or higher).
addresses. This value must be greater than the IP address value
of the router. For example, if the IP address of the router is
192.168.1.1 (default), then the starting IP address must be
192.168.1.2 (or higher).
End IP
The End IP Address is where the DHCP server stops issuing IP
addresses. The ending address cannot exceed a subnet limit of
254; hence the max value for the default gateway is
192.168.1.254. If the DHCP server runs out of DHCP addresses,
users do not get access to network resources. If this happens,
you can increase the Ending IP address (to the limit of 254) or
reduce the lease time.

Lease Time
The Lease Time is the amount of time that a network user is
allowed to maintain a network connection to the router using the
current dynamic IP address. At the end of the Lease Time, the
lease is either renewed or the DHCP server issues a new IP. The
amount of time is in units of seconds. The default value is 3600
seconds (1 hour). The maximum value is 999999 seconds
allowed to maintain a network connection to the router using the
current dynamic IP address. At the end of the Lease Time, the
lease is either renewed or the DHCP server issues a new IP. The
amount of time is in units of seconds. The default value is 3600

(About 278 hours).
Enable DHCP Relay
In addition to the DHCP server feature, the router supports the
