10. To let the modem router that functions as the WiFi bridge get an IP address dynamically from the modem router
that is connected to the Internet modem, leave the Get dynamically from existing router radio button selected.
We recommend that you leave the Get dynamically from existing router radio button selected. However, if
you are sure that must use a static IP address, you can specify a static IP address from your other router's LAN
IP address pool. To specify static IP address for the modem router that functions as the WiFi bridge, do the
following:
a. Select the Use fixed IP Address (not recommended) radio button.
A pop-up window opens.
b. Enter all static IP addresses.
11. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved. The modem router restarts with a new IP address.
12. To reconnect, close your browser, relaunch it, and log in to the modem router by entering
http://www.routerlogin.net.
When the modem router functions as a WiFi bridge, you cannot change its WiFi settings, that is, the settings on
the Wireless Settings page (BASIC > Wireless) are masked out.
