After changing the Cisco RV180/RV180W's LAN IP address, your PC is no longer
connected to the Cisco RV180/RV180W.
To reconnect your PC to the Cisco RV180/RV180W:
•
If DHCP is configured on the Cisco RV180/RV180W, release and renew your
PC's IP address.
•
If DHCP is not configured on the Cisco RV180/RV180W, manually assign an
IP address to your PC. The address must be on the same subnet as the Cisco
RV180/RV180W. For example, if you change the Cisco RV180/RV180W's
IP address to 10.0.0. 1 , assign your PC an IP address in the range of 10.0.0.2
to 10.0.0.254.
Open a new browser window and enter the new IP address of the Cisco RV180/
RV180W to reconnect.
Configuring DHCP
By default, the Cisco RV180/RV180W functions as a DHCP server to the hosts on
the Wireless LAN (WLAN) or LAN network and assigns IP and DNS server
addresses.
With DHCP enabled, the router's IP address serves as the gateway address to
your LAN. The PCs in the LAN are assigned IP addresses from a pool of
addresses. Each address is tested before it is assigned to avoid duplicate
addresses on the LAN.
For most applications, the default DHCP settings are satisfactory. If you want
another PC on your network to be the DHCP server, or if you are manually
configuring the network settings of all of your PCs, disable DHCP.
To configure the DHCP settings of the Cisco RV180/RV180W:
Choose Networking > LAN (Local Network) > IPv4 LAN (Local Network).
From the DHCP Mode drop-down menu, choose one of these options:
•
None—Choose this option if the Cisco RV180/RV180W is not going to act as
a DHCP server.
•
DHCP Server—Choose this option to configure the Cisco RV180/RV180W
to be a DHCP server and enter this information:
-
Domain Name— (Optional) Enter the domain name for your network.
