Specify the IP Addresses That the Modem Router Assigns
By default, the modem router acts as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server.
The modem router assigns IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers
connected to the LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of the
modem router.
These addresses must be part of the same IP address subnet as the modem router’s LAN IP
address. Using the default addressing scheme, define a range between 192.168.0.2 and
192.168.0.254, although you can save part of the range for devices with fixed addresses.
The modem router delivers the following parameters to any LAN device that requests DHCP:
An IP address from the range that you defined
Subnet mask
Gateway IP address (the modem router’
s LAN IP address)
DNS server IP address (the modem router’
s LAN IP address)
