Wireless-N Gigabit Router with Storage Link
MTU. The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) setting specifies the largest packet size permitted for network
transmission. To manually set a value, select Manual and enter the value desired in the Size field. You should
leave this value in the 1200 to 1500 range. Most DSL users should use the value 1492. The default is Auto, which
allows the Router to select the best MTU for your Internet connection.
Network Setup
The Network Setup section allows you to change the Router's local network settings.
Router IP
The Router's Local IP Address and Subnet Mask are shown here. In most cases, you should keep the defaults.
Local IP Address. The default value is 192.168.1.1.
Subnet Mask. The default value is 255.255.255.0.
DHCP Server Setting
The Router can be used as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server for your network. A DHCP server
automatically assigns an IP address to each computer on your network. Unless you already have one, it is highly
recommended that you leave the Router enabled as a DHCP server.
DHCP Server. DHCP is enabled by factory default. If you already have a DHCP server on your network, set the
Router's DHCP option to Disabled. If you disable DHCP, remember to assign a static IP address to the Router.
Start IP Address. Enter a value for the DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. Because the default
IP address for the Router is 192.168.1.1, the Start IP Address must be 192.168.1. 2 or greater, but smaller than
192.168.1.254. The default Start IP Address is 192.168.1.100.
Maximum Number of Users (Optional). Enter the maximum number of PCs that you want the DHCP server to
assign IP addresses to. This number cannot be greater than 253. The default is 50.
Client Lease Time. The Client Lease Time is the amount of time a network user will be allowed connection to the
Router with their current dynamic IP address. Enter the amount of time, in minutes, that the user will be "leased"
this dynamic IP address. After the dynamic IP address has expired, the user will be automatically assigned a new
dynamic IP address. The default is 0 minutes, which means one day.
Static DNS 1-3. The Domain Name System (DNS) is how the Internet translates domain or website names into
Internet addresses or URLs. Your ISP will provide you with at least one DNS Server IP Address. You can enter up to
three DNS Server IP Addresses here. The Router will use these for quicker access to functioning DNS servers.
