NETGEAR RangeMax™ Dual Band Wireless-N Router WNDR3300 Reference Manual
4-4 Customizing Your Network Settings
v1.0, February 2008
The router delivers the following parameters to any LAN device that requests DHCP:
An IP Address from the range you have defined
Subnet Mask
Gateway IP Address (the routers LAN IP address)
Primary DNS Server (if you entered a primary DNS address in the Basic Settings screen;
otherwise, the routers LAN IP address)
Secondary DNS Server (if you entered a secondary DNS address in the Basic Settings screen)
To use another device on your network as the DHCP server, or to manually configure the network
settings of all of your computers, clear the Use Router as DHCP Server check box. Otherwise,
leave it selected. If this service is not selected and no other DHCP server is available on your
network, you will need to set your computers’ IP addresses manually or they will not be able to
access the router.
Using Address Reservation
When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer always
receives the same IP address each time it accesses the routers DHCP server. Reserved IP
addresses should be assigned to computers or servers that require permanent IP settings.
To reserve an IP address:
1. Click Add.
2. In the IP Address field, type the IP address to assign to the computer or server. (Choose an IP
address from the routers LAN subnet, such as 192.168.1.x.)
3. Type the MAC address of the computer or server.
4. Click Apply to enter the reserved address into the table.
Tip: If the computer is already present on your network, you can copy its MAC
address from the Attached Devices screen and paste it here.
Note: The reserved address is not assigned until the next time the computer contacts
the routers DHCP server. Reboot the computer or access its IP configuration
and force a DHCP release and renew.
