• Subnet Mask: The subnet mask network setting for the
Hotspot. The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for
small (class "C") networks. If you change the LAN IP Address,
make sure to use the correct Subnet Mask for the IP address
range of the LAN IP address.
• Turn on DHCP Server: This checkbox turns the DHCP Server
feature on or off. This should be left checked. The DHCP
server allocates an IP address to each connected device.
NOTE: If the DHCP Server is turned off, each connected
device must be assigned a xed IP address.
• DHCP Lease Time: The number of minutes in which
connected devices must renew the IP address assigned to
them by the DHCP server. Normally, this can be left at the
default value, but if you have special requirements, you can
change this value.
• Start DHCP Address Range at: The start of the IP address
range used by the DHCP server. If the IP is set on the client
device, use an IP address outside of this DHCP range; if the IP
address is set using an IP reservation, it will usually be inside
this range.
NOTE: Only expert users should change this setting.
• End DHCP Address Range at: The end of the IP address
range used by the DHCP server. If the IP is set on the client
device, use an IP address outside of this DHCP range; if the IP
address is set using an IP reservation, it will usually be inside
this range.
NOTE: Only expert users should change this setting.
• Reserved IP Addresses: Use this button to set up reserved IP
addresses. Reserved IP addresses ensure that a connected
device will always be allocated the same IP Address.
