Manage the DHCP Server Address Pool

By default, the modem router acts as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server.
The modem router assigns IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers
that are connected to its LAN and WiFi network. The assigned default gateway address is the
LAN address of the modem router.
These addresses must be part of the same IP address subnet as the modem router's LAN IP
address. The default DHCP address pool is 192.168.0.2–192.168.0.254.
