USING THE WEB-BASED ADVANCED USER INTERFACE
1. IP Address
The “IP address” is the internal IP address of the Router. The default IP
address is “192.168.2.1”. To access the advanced setup interface, type
this IP address into the address bar of your browser. This address can
be changed if needed. To change the IP address, type in the new IP
address and click “Apply Changes”. The IP address you choose should
be a non-routable IP. Examples of a non-routable IP are:
192.168.x.x (where x is anything between 1 and 254)
10.x.x.x (where x is anything between 1 and 254)
172.y.x.x (where x is anything between 1 and 254 and y is anything
between 16 and 31)
2. Subnet Mask
There is no need to change the subnet mask. This is a unique, advanced
feature of your Belkin Router. It is possible to change the subnet mask
if necessary; however, do NOT make changes to the subnet mask
unless you have a specific reason to do so. The default setting is
“255.255.255.0”.
3. DHCP Server
The DHCP server function makes setting up a network very easy by
assigning IP addresses to each computer on the network automatically.
The default setting is “On”. The DHCP server can be turned OFF if
necessary; however, in order to do so you must manually set a static
IP address for each computer on your network. To turn off the DHCP
server, select “Off” and click “Apply Changes”.
4. IP Pool
The range of IP addresses set aside for dynamic assignment to the
computers on your network. The default is 2–100 (99 computers). If you
want to change this number, you can do so by entering a new starting
and ending IP address and clicking on “Apply Changes”. The DHCP
server can assign 100 IP addresses automatically. This means that
you cannot specify an IP address pool larger than 100 computers. For
example, starting at 50 means you have to end at 150 or lower so as not
to exceed the 100-client limit. The starting IP address must be lower in
number than the ending IP address.
