DG834G Reference Manual These addresses are part of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)-designated private address range for use in private networks, and should be suitable in most applications. If your network has a requirement to use a different IP addressing scheme, you can make those changes in this menu. Figure 7-2 The LAN TCP/IP Setup parameters are: • IP Address This is the LAN IP address of the ADSL modem router. Warning: If you change the LAN IP address of the ADSL modem router while connected through the browser, you or anyone else using the router will be disconnected. You must then open a new connection to the new IP address and log in again. Others using the router will have to restart their computer and connect to the router again. • IP Subnet Mask This is the LAN Subnet Mask of the ADSL modem router. Combined with the IP address, the IP Subnet Mask allows a device to know which other addresses are local to it, and which must be reached through a gateway or ADSL modem router.
