This lists all current entries. Data displayed is name (IP Address) type.
The "type" indicates whether the PC is connected to the LAN.

the selected PC will then be shown in the "Properties" area, where it
may be edited. (Click "Update" to save any changes.)

Use this to Delete the selected PC from the list. This should be done in
2 situations:

PC Properties
Name
If adding a new PC to the list, enter its name here. It is best if this
matches the PC's "hostname".
IP Address
Select the appropriate option:
• Automatic - The PC is set to be a DHCP client (Windows: "Ob-
tain an IP address automatically"). The Broadband Router will
allocate an IP address to this PC when requested to do so. The IP
address could change, but normally won't.
• DCHP Client - Reserved IP Address - Select this if the PC is set
to be a DCHP client, and you wish to guarantee that the Broad-
band Router will always allocate the same IP Address to this PC.
Enter the required IP address. Only the last field is required; the
other fields must match the Broadband Router's IP address.
• Fixed IP Address - Select this if the PC is using a Fixed (Static)
IP address. Enter the IP address allocated to the PC. (The PC must
be configured to use this IP address.)
