DHCP Server Settings

The router has a built-in DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) server. The DHCP server will automatically assign

an IP address to the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by

setting their TCP/IP settings to “Obtain an IP Address Automatically.” When you turn your computers on, they will

automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the DIR-330. The DHCP Server will automatically allocate

an unused IP address from the IP address pool to the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending

address of the IP address pool.
