By default, the modem router functions as a 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. The modem 
router assigns IP addresses to the attached computers from a pool of addresses specified on 
the LAN Setup 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 
modem router work well.

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

An IP address from the range that you have defined 

Subnet mask

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

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

You can specify the pool of IP addresses that the modem router assigns by setting the 
starting IP address and ending IP address. 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 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.254, although you might want to 
save part of the range for devices with fixed addresses.



Select ADVANCED > LAN Setup.

The LAN Setup screen displays.

Make sure that the Use Router as a DHCP Server check box is selected.

Specify the range of IP addresses.

For example, using the default addressing scheme, 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.

In the Starting IP Address field, specify the start of the range for the pool of IP 
addresses in the same subnet as the modem router.

In the Ending IP Address field, specify the end of the range for the pool of IP 
addresses in the same subnet as the modem router.

Click the Apply button.

Your settings are saved.
