Change the LAN TCP/IP Settings

The router is preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act as a

DHCP server. The router’s default LAN IP configuration is as follows:

• LAN IP address. 192.168.1.1

• Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0

These addresses are part of the designated private address range for use in private networks

and are suitable for most applications. If your network requires a different IP addressing

scheme, you can change these settings.

You might want to change the settings if you need a specific IP subnet that one or more

devices on the network uses or if you use competing subnets with the same IP scheme.
