Extender IP Address Setup
The IP Address Setup screen shows whether the extender is set to get its IP address
dynamically from the router (this is the most common setting), or is set up with a static IP
address.
To view or change the IP address settings:
Select
Setup > IP Address Settings
.
The following information is displayed:
•
Get Dynamically IP Address From Router
. The wireless network router assigns an
IP address when the extender connects to its wireless network. Most networks are set
up so that the router automatically does this.
•
Use Static IP Address
. Specify a static IP address. This is not usually necessary. If
you set this up, you should be technically experienced or have a technically
experienced person help you.
-
IP Address
. The static IP address.
-
IP Subnet Mask
. The subnet mask associated with the IP address.
