Setup screen displays.
Configuring a Device Name
The device name is a user-friendly name for the router. This name is shown in the Network on
Windows Vista and the Network Explorer on all Windows systems. The Device Name field
cannot be blank. The default name is WNR500.
Configuring LAN TCP/IP Setup Parameters
These are advanced settings that you might configure if you are a network administrator and your
network contains multiple routers. The router is shipped preconfigured to use private IP addresses
on the LAN side and to act as a DHCP server (see “Using the Router as a DHCP Server” on
page 4-3).

Note: If you change the LAN IP address of the router while connected through the
browser, you will be disconnected. You must then open a new connection to the
new IP address and log in again.
