Manage the Built-In DHCP Server
By default, the modem router functions as a DHCP server. The modem router assigns IP,
DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all devices connected to the LAN. The
assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of the modem router.

settings of all your computers.
Note:

on your network, you must set your computer IP addresses manually
so that they can access the modem router.
To disable the built-in DHCP server:
1.

network.
