4.5.2 LAN
When the module operates in the Gateway mode, it supports the NAT (NAPT) feature. It
means the WAN and LAN interfaces are located in different network segments and therefore
the date traffic needs to be routed between the two interfaces.
To communicate with 802.11n router properly, must assign an IP address to the LAN port of
the user’s PC. There are two ways to assign a proper IP address to the user PC’s LAN port:
Manual configuration of the user PC:
This required if the user configures the 802.11n router WAN port with a static IP address.
Dynamic IP assignment with DHCP:
802.11n router can act as a DHCP server which dynamically assigns an IP address to user’s
PC located in the LAN-side network.
