Configuring Your LAN IP Settings
The LAN IP Setup screen allows configuration of LAN IP services such as DHCP and RIP. These
features can be found under the Advanced heading in the modem router main menu.
The modem router is shipped preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side, and to act
as a DHCP server. The modem router default LAN IP configuration is:
•
LAN IP addresses: 192.168.0.1
•
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
These addresses are part of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)-designated private address
range for use in private networks, and should be suitable in most applications. If your network has
a requirement to use a different IP addressing scheme, you can make those changes in this screen.
To view or change the LAN IP Setup:.

Warning:
If you change the LAN IP address of the modem router while connected
through the browser, you will be disconnected and so will others connected to
the modem router. To connect to the modem router, you must open a new
connection to the new IP address and log in again. Others using the modem
router must restart their computers to connect to the modem router again.
