2-5-8 Setup Procedure for ‘DDNS’:
DDNS (Dynamic DNS) is an IP-to-Hostname mapping service for those
Internet users who don’t have a static (fixed) IP address. It will be a problem
when such user wants to provide services to other users on Internet, because
their IP address will vary every time when connected to Internet, and other
user will not be able to know the IP address they’re using at a certain time.
This router supports DDNS service of several service providers, for
example:
DynDNS (
)
TZO (
)
Please go to one of DDNS service provider’s webpage listed above, and get
a free DDNS account by the instructions given on their webpage.
Dynamic DNS (1):
If you want to enable DDNS function, please select
‘Enabled’; otherwise please select ‘Disabled’.
Provider (2):

Wired LAN Configurations
There are two ways to assign IP addresses to computers: static IP address
(set the IP address for every computer manually), and dynamic IP address
(IP address of computers will be assigned by router automatically. It’s
recommended for most of computers to use dynamic IP address; it will save
a lot of time, especially when there are a lot of computers in your network.
Static IPs should be set for servers and network devices which will provide
services to users over the Internet, so users computes can locate the server.
Suggestions on IP address numbering plan:
If you have no idea on how to define an IP address plan for your
network, here are some suggestions.
1. A valid IP address has 4 fields: a.b.c.d, for most of home and
company users, it’s suggested to use 192.168.c.d, where c is
an integer between 0 and 254, and d is an integer between 1
and 254. This router is capable to work with up to 253 clients,
so you can set ‘d’ field of IP address of router as 1 or 254 (or
any number between 1 and 254), and pick a number between 0
and 254 for field ‘c’.
2. In most cases, you should use ‘255.255.255.0’ as subnet mask,
which allows up to 253 clients (this also meets router’s
capability of working with up to 253 clients).
3. For all servers and network devices which will provide
services to other people (like Internet service, print service,
and file service), they should use static IP address. Give each
of them a unique number between 1 and 253, and maintain a
list, so everyone can locate those servers easily.
4. For computers which are not dedicated to provide specific
service to others, they should use dynamic IP address.

function, select ‘Enabled’ for setup item ‘802.1d

2-6-2 DHCP Server:
These settings are only available when ‘DHCP Server’ in ‘LAN IP’ section
is ‘Enabled’.
Lease Time (1):
Please choose a lease time (the duration that every
computer can keep a specific IP address) of every IP
address assigned by this router from dropdown menu.
Start IP (2):
Please input the start IP address of the IP range.
End IP (3):
Please input the end IP address of the IP range.
Domain Name (4):
If you wish, you can also optionally input the domain
name for your network. This is optional.
Recommended Value if you don’t know what to fill:
Lease Time: Two Weeks (or ‘Forever’, if you have less than 20 computers)
Start IP: 192.168.2.100
End IP: 192.168.2.200
Domain Name: (leave it blank)
NOTE:
1. The number of the last field (mentioned ‘d’ field) of ‘End IP’ must be
greater than ‘Start IP’, and can not the same with router’s IP address.
2. The former three fields of IP address of ‘Start IP’, ‘End IP’, and ‘IP
Address of ‘LAN IP’ section (mentioned ‘a’, ‘b’, and ‘c’ field) should be
the same.
3. These settings will affect wireless clients too.
