6.7 WiFi / Local Network
This section is used to configure the
settings for wireless networks created
by your router. Note that changes made
in this section may also need to be
duplicated on wireless devices that you
want to connect to your wireless
network.
For example, if you change the LAN IP address,
devices within your network will lose connection
to the LAN. They will have to reconnect to your
network.
6.7.1 LAN Settings
IP Address: This is the address used
by the router for local area network
communication. Changes to this
parameter may require a restart to
computers on this network.
Netmask: (Default: 255.255.255.0) The
netmask controls how many IP addresses can be used in this network. The default value allows for 254 IP addresses,
which is enough in most cases.
Hostname: [Default: cp (for CradlePoint)] The hostname is the DNS name associated with the router's local area network
IP address. You can access the router‘s administration pages by inputting the hostname into your browser, so if you
change ―cp‖ to another hostname, you can access the administration pages through the new hostname.
Guest IP Address: This is the address used by the router for the guest network communication. The guest network
DHCP range is automatically selected based off this address. The guest network cannot overlap with the main network.
