DHCP Server Setting
The settings allow you to configure the Router's Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server function. The
Router can be used as a DHCP server for your network. A
DHCP server automatically assigns an IP address to each
computer on your network. If you choose to enable the
Router's DHCP server option, make sure there is no other
DHCP server on your network.

Enter a value for the DHCP server

than 192.168.15.253. The default Starting IP Address is
192.1.1.100.

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 time is up, the user will
be automatically assigned a new dynamic IP address. The
default is 0 minutes, which means one day.

The Domain Name System (DNS) is how the
Internet translates domain or website names into Internet
addresses or URLs. Enter at least one DNS server IP address,
which is provided by your ISP. If you wish to use another,
enter that IP address in one of these fields. You can enter up
to three DNS server IP addresses here. The Router will use
these for quicker access to functioning DNS servers.

Otherwise, leave this blank.
