Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router User Guide

The PC Database is used whenever you need to select a PC (e.g. for the "DMZ" PC).  
•  It eliminates the need to enter IP addresses.  
•  Also, you do not need to use fixed IP addresses on your LAN. 

However, if you do use a fixed IP address on some devices on your LAN, you should 
enter details of each such device into the PC database, using the PC Database 
screen. 

An example PC Database screen is shown below. 

 

•  PCs which are "DHCP Clients" are automatically added to the database, and 

updated as required. 

•  By default, non-Server versions of Windows act as "DHCP Clients"; this setting is 

called "Obtain an IP Address automatically". 

•  The Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router uses the "Hardware Address" to identify 

each PC, not the name or IP address. The "Hardware Address" can only change if 
you change the PC's network card or adapter. 

•  This system means you do NOT need to use Fixed (static) IP addresses on your 

LAN. However, you can add PCs using Fixed (static) IP Addresses to the PC da-
tabase if required.
