Change The Lan Settings - NETGEAR LB1121 User Manual

Change the LAN Settings

The modem is preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side. The modem's default LAN IP
configuration is as follows:
• LAN IP address. 192.168.5.1
• Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0
This address and subnet mask are part of the designated private address range for use in private networks
and are suitable for most applications. The IP address and subnet mask identify which addresses are local
to a specific device and which must be reached through a gateway or router.
Although you can change the IP address of the modem, this is rarely necessary. However, if you establish
a VPN connection to a server that assigns IP addresses in the same range as the one that is used by the
modem, you must change the IP address of the modem to prevent network problems.
To change the LAN settings:
1. Launch a web browser from a device that is connected to the modem.
The device can be a computer that is directly connected to the modem or a client from a router that is
connected to the modem.
2. In the address field of your browser, enter http://192.168.5.1.
The limited Dashboard page displays.
3. If you did not select the Remember me check box when you logged in previously, enter the modem
password in the Sign In field.
See the modem label for the default password.
4. Click the Sign In button.
The full Dashboard page displays.
