D6200 WiFi DSL Modem Router
To use another device on your network as the DHCP server, or to manually configure the
network settings of all of your computers, clear the Use Router as DHCP Server check box
and click Apply. Otherwise, leave this check box selected. If this service is not enabled and
no other DHCP server is available on your network, you need to set your computers’ IP
addresses manually or they are not able to access the WiFi DSL modem router.
Address Reservation
When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer always
receives the same IP address each time it accesses the WiFi DSL modem router’s DHCP
server. Reserved IP addresses should be assigned to computers or servers that require
permanent IP settings.
To reserve an IP address:
1. Select ADVANCED
> Setup > LAN Setup.
2. In the Addr
ess Reservation section of the screen, click the Add button.
3. In the IP Address field, type the IP address to assign to the computer or server. (Choose an
IP address from the WiFi DSL modem router’s LAN subnet, such as 192.168.0.x.)
4. Type the MAC address of the computer or server.
Ti
p: If the computer is already on your net
work, you can copy its MAC
address from the Attached Devices screen and paste it here.
5. Click Appl
y.
The reserved address is not assigned until the next time the computer contacts the WiFi
DSL modem router’
s DHCP server. Reboot the computer, or access its IP configuration
and force a DHCP release and renew.
To edit or delete a reserved address entry:
1. Select the radio button next to the reserved address you want to edit or delete.
2. Click one of the following buttons: Ed
it or Delete.
