will allocate an IP address to this PC when requested to do
so. The IP address could change, but normally won't.
• DCHP Client - Reserved IP Address - Select this if the PC
is set to be a DCHP client, and you wish to guarantee that
the Wireless Router will always allocate the same IP Ad-
dress to this PC.
Enter the required IP address. Only the last field is required;
the other fields must match the Wireless Router's IP ad-
dress.
• Fixed IP Address - Select this if the PC is using a Fixed
(Static) IP address. Enter the IP address allocated to the
PC. (The PC must be configured to use this IP address.)
MAC Address Select the appropriate option

Router contact the PC and find its MAC address. This is only
possible if the PC is connected to the LAN and powered On.
• MAC address is - Enter the MAC address on the PC. The
MAC address is also called the "Hardware Address", "Physi-
cal Address", or "Network Adapter Address". The
Broadband Router uses this to provide a unique identifier for
each PC. Because of this, the MAC address can NOT be left
blank.
