DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The DWL-1700AP has a built-in DHCP
server. The DHCP Server will automatically assign an IP Address to the computers on the
LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting their
TCP/IP settings to “Obtain an IP Address Automatically.” When you turn your computers
ON, they will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the DWL-1700AP.
The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP Address from the IP Address
pool to the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending address of the
IP Address pool. (We suggest that you enable the DHCP server for wireless clients.)
