Setting Custom Domain Name Server (DNS) Settings 
A  “Domain  Name  Server”  is  a  server  located  on  the  Internet  that 
translates  Universal  Resource  Locaters  (URLs)  like  “www.belkin.
com”  to  IP  addresses.  Many  Internet  Service  Providers  (ISPs)  do  not 
require  you  to  enter  this  information  into  the  Router.  The  “Automatic 
from  ISP”  box 
(1)  should  be  checked  if  your  ISP  did  not  give  you  a...

3.   DHCP Server 
The  DHCP  server  function  makes  setting  up  a  network  very  easy 
by  assigning  IP  addresses  to  each  computer  on  the  network 
automatically.  The  default  setting  is  “On”.  The  DHCP  server 
can  be  turned  OFF  if  necessary;  however,  in  order  to  do  so  you 
must  manually  set  a  static  IP  address  for  each  computer  on  your 
network.  To  turn  off  the  DHCP  server,  select  “Off”  and  click...

Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID) 
To  identify  your  wireless  network,  a  name  called  the  SSID    is  used. 
The  SSID  is  your  network  name.  The  default  network  name  of  the 
Router  is  “Belkin  N  Wireless”  followed  by  six  digits  that  are  unique  to 
your  Router.  Your  network  name  will  look  something  like  “Belkin_N_

Using  the  Bandwidth  Switch 
This  switch  allows  you  to  set  the  Router’s  wireless  bandwidth  modes. 
There  are  several  modes  available:
1)   20MHz/40MHz 
Setting  the  Router  to  this  mode  allows  it  to  switch  automatically 
between  20MHz  and  40MHz  operation.  This  mode  enables  40MHz 
operation,  to  maximize  speed  for  N  draft  802.11n-compliant  devices 
when  conditions  permit.  When  a  legacy  802.11g  access...
