Options related to:
SELECTING THE WR850 LOCAL AREA NETWORK PROTOCOL
Field Description
MAC Address:
(DISPLAY ONLY)
Shows the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the WR850 LAN
connections. This is the physical address of these LAN connections.
Protocol:
(ADVANCED)
Sets the method by which an IP address is assigned to the WR850’s
LAN connections.
• Selecting Static requires that a unique and permanent IP
address be assigned, in the IP Address field just below.
• Selecting DHCP assumes that a Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol server is on your LAN and can assign the WR850
an IP address. You will want to disable the WR850 DHCP
server below.
NOTE: If Operation Mode on the BASIC Page is set to Router, this field
is set to Static (and you will not be able to select DHCP).
FACTORY DEFAULT:
Static
IP Address:
(ADVANCED)
Sets the IP address for the WR850 LAN connections, when the
Protocol
field is set to Static.
NOTE: Changing this IP Address will change the address at which you
access the Web-based Configuration Utility.
NOTE: Changing this IP Address should be coordinated with the IP
addresses you assign to devices that will connect to the WR850.
NOTE: If Protocol (above) is set to DHCP, this field will be greyed out,
and any data entered will not be used.
FACTORY DEFAULT:
192.168.10.1
Subnet Mask:
(ADVANCED)
Sets the subnet mask for the WR850 LAN connections, when the
Protocol
field is set to Static. The subnet mask is used to divide your
LAN into multiple “subnets.”
NOTE: If Protocol (above) is set to DHCP, this field will be greyed out,
and any data entered will not be used.
FACTORY DEFAULT:
255.255.255.0
