Once you have configured your PCs to obtain an IP address automatically, the router’s DHCP server will

automatically give your LAN clients an IP address. By default the Broadband Router’s DHCP server is

enabled so that you can obtain an IP address automatically. To see if you have obtained an IP address,

see Appendix A.

Note

: Please make sure that the Broadband router’s DHCP server is the only DHCP server available on

your LAN. If there is another DHCP on your network, then you’ll need to switch one of the DHCP servers off.

(To disable the Broadband router’s DHCP server see chapter 2 LAN Port)
