Congure the DHCP Server
Advanced > Setup > LANSengs
Your router can be used as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguraon Protocol) server to
automacally assign an IP address to each computer or device on your network. The DHCP
server is enabled by default on your router. If you already have a DHCP server on your
network, or if you do not want to use your router as a DHCP server, you can disable this
seng. It is recommended to leave this seng enabled.
1 Log into your router management page (refer to “Log in to Management Page” on page 8).
2 Click on Advanced > Setup > LAN Sengs.
3 In DHCP Server Sengs secon, review and modify the following sengs:
 DHCP Server: Enable or disable the DHCP server.
 DHCP Start IP: Change the starng address for the DHCP server range. For example,
192.168.10.20.
 DHCP End IP: Change the ending address for the DHCP server range. For example,
192.168.10.30.
 DHCP Lease Time: Enter the DHCP lease me in minutes.
ÍNote: The DHCP lease me is the amount of me a computer or device can
keep an IP address or assigned by the DHCP server. When the lease me
expires, the computer or device will renew the IP address lease with the DHCP
server, otherwise if there is no aempt to renew the lease, the DHCP server will
reallocate the IP address to be assigned to another computer or device.
4 Click Apply to save the changes.
ÍNote: To discard the changes, click Cancel.
Congure DHCP Reservaon
Advanced > Setup > LANSengs
DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguraon Protocol) reservaon (also called Stac DHCP) allows
your router to assign a xed IP address from the DHCP server IP address range to a specic
device on your network. Assigning a xed IP address can allow you to easily keep track of
the IP addresses used on your network by your computers or devices for future reference
or conguraon such as virtual server (also called port forwarding, refer to “Virtual
Server” on page 33) or special applicaons (also called port triggering, refer to “Special
Applicaons” on page 34).
1 Log into your router management page (refer to “Log in to Management Page” on page 8).
2 Click on Advanced > Setup > LAN Sengs.
3 In Add DHCP Reservaon secon, do the following:
 Enable: Enable or Disable the DHCP reservaon.
 Computer Name: Enter a name of the device you will assign the DHCP reservaon.
ÍNote: Next to the Computer Name eld, you can click the Host Name drop-down
list to select an available computer from the DHCP server lisng. Click on the
available computer to copy the computer’s name/IP address, and MAC address
informaon into the respecve elds.
 IP Address: Enter the IP address to assign to the reservaon. For example,
192.168.10.101.
 MAC Address: Enter the MAC (Media Access Control) address of the computer or
network device to assign to the reservaon. For example, 00:11:22:AA:BB:CC.
 Copy your PC’s MAC: To copy your current computer’s MAC address to the eld, click
Copy.
4 Click Add to save the reservaon.
