IPv4
IP address
: The IP address for this device, as seen from the local network. Normally, you can
use the default value.
Subnet mask
: The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C") networks. If you
change the LAN IP Address, ensure you use the correct Subnet Mask.
MAC address
: The MAC address is a unique network identifier, assigned when a network
device is manufactured. This read-only field displays the MAC Address for the Wi-Fi and USB
interfaces on this device.
Enable DHCP server
: Normally, this should be left enabled. The DHCP server allocates an IP
address to each connected device. If the DHCP Server was disabled, then each connected
device would need to be assigned a fixed IP address.
Start DHCP address range at
: If you wish to change the IP address range used by the DHCP
server, you can do so by changing this value. This option is for expert users only.
DHCP address range
: This indicates the range of IP addresses which may be allocated to
connected devices. If using a fixed IP address on a connected device, you should use an IP
address that is outside this range.
DHCP lease time
: This field determines how often connected devices must renew the IP
address assigned to them by the DHCP server. Normally, this can be left at the default value,
but if you have special requirements you can change this value.
IPv6
If your device and your service provider support IPv6, this section will be visible.
Enable IPv6
: If some of your connected devices support IPv6, this setting should be enabled.
IPv6-enabled connected devices will then be able to make IPv6 connections to the Internet.
Link-Local address
: This is the IPv6 address of this device. The Link-Local address is used for
IPv6 communication between devices on the same network.
