Chapter 6 Advanced Configuration
The beginning and ending IP addresses define the IP address range of the
Gateway. If the default values are left intact, the Gateway supplies a unique IP
address between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254 to each computer on the net-
work. Note that the first three groups of numbers of the addresses are identical;
this means they are on the same subnet. The
IP address of the Gateway must be
on the same subnet as the IP address range it generates. For instance, if the
Gateway’s IP address is changed to 111.33.222.1, set the beginning IP address to
111.33.222.2, and the ending IP address to 111.33.222.254.
