Router IP
The HiPort’s Local IP Address and Subnet Mask are shown here. In most cases, you should keep the defaults.
Local IP Address
Static IP Assignment
Starting IP Address Enter a value for the DHCP server
to start with when issuing IP addresses. Because the default IP address for the HiPort is 192.168.29.1, the Start IP Address must be 192.168.29.2 or greater, but smaller than 192.168.29.254. The default Start IP Address is
192.168.29.100.
