Reference Manual for the ADSL Modem Wireless Router DG834GSP
Advanced Configuration 7-7
v1.0, June 2007
For most applications, the default DHCP and TCP/IP settings of the router are satisfactory. See
“Internet Networking and TCP/IP Addressing” in Appendix C for an explanation of DHCP and
information about how to assign IP addresses for your network.
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 of your computers, clear the ‘Use router as DHCP server’ check box.
Otherwise, leave it selected.
Specify the pool of IP addresses to be assigned by setting the Starting IP Address and Ending IP
Address. These addresses should be part of the same IP address subnet as the routers LAN IP
address. Using the default addressing scheme, you should define a range between 10.1.1.2 and
10.1.1.254, although you may want to save part of the range for devices with fixed addresses.
The router will deliver 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 routers LAN IP address
Primary DNS Server, if you entered a Primary DNS address in the Basic Settings menu;
otherwise, the routers LAN IP address
Secondary DNS Server, if you entered a Secondary DNS address in the Basic Settings menu
WINS Server, short for Windows Internet Naming Service Server, determines the IP address
associated with a particular Windows computer. A WINS server records and reports a list of
names and IP address of Windows PCs on its local network. If you connect to a remote
network that contains a WINS server, enter the servers IP address here. This allows your PCs
to browse the network using the Network Neighborhood feature of Windows.
Reserved IP addresses
When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer will always
receive the same IP address each time it access the routers DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses
should be assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings.
To reserve an IP address:
1. Click the Add button.
