NETGEAR Mobile Broadband 11n Wireless Router MBR1310

DHCP Settings

By default, the router functions as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server,

allowing it to assign IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers

connected to the router’s LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of

the router. IP addresses is assigned to the attached computers from a pool of addresses

specified in this screen. Each pool address is tested before it is assigned to avoid duplicate

addresses on the LAN.

For most applications, the default DHCP and TCP/IP settings of the router are satisfactory.

Use Router as DHCP Server

If another device on your network will be the DHCP server, or if you will manually configure

the network settings of all your computers, clear the

Use Router as DHCP Server

check box

on the LAN IP Setup screen. Otherwise, leave it selected.

Specify the pool of IP addresses to be assigned by filling in the Starting IP Address and

Ending IP Address fields. These addresses should be part of the same IP address subnet as

the router’s LAN IP address. Using the default addressing scheme, you should define a

range between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254, although you might want to save part of the

range for devices with fixed addresses.

The router delivers the following parameters to any LAN device that requests DHCP:

•

An IP address from the range you have defined.

•

Subnet mask.

•

Gateway IP address is the router’s LAN IP address.

•

Primary DNS server, if you entered a primary DNS address in the Basic Settings screen;

otherwise, the router’s LAN IP address.

•

Secondary DNS server, if you entered a secondary DNS address in the Basic Settings

screen.

•

WINS server (Windows Internet Naming Service Server) determines the IP address

associated with a particular Windows computer. A WINS server records and reports a list

Use Router as a DHCP

Server

This check box is usually selected so that the router functions as a

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server.

Starting IP Address

Specify the start of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the

same subnet as the router.

Ending IP Address

Specify the end of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the

same subnet as the router.

Address Reservation

For more information, see

DHCP Settings

on page 75.

When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the

LAN, that computer receives the same IP address each time it

accesses the router’s DHCP server. Assign reserved IP addresses

to servers that require permanent IP settings.
