Changing Router's IP Address

1. Connect a Wi-Fi client device, such as a laptop, smart phone or tablet, to the SBX-AC1200P default wireless network. 
   
   NOTE: The default wireless name and password are located on the back panel of the SBX-AC1200P.  
    
2. Launch a web browser, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari.  Enter http://192.168.0.1 into the address box, and press the Enter key.  The Login page will appear.
    
3. On the Login page, enter admin in the Username field.
    
4. Enter password in the Password field.
    
5. Click the Login button.  The Home page will appear.
   
    
    
6. Move the mouse-cursor over Basic on the main menu and click the DHCP link on the sub-menu.  The Basic - DHCP page will appear.
   
   
    
7. On the Basic - DHCP page, enter the desired IP address in the LAN IP Address field for the LAN interface here.  In this example, 192.168.8.1 is used. 
    
   NOTE: The LAN IP address used must be a private IP address (within one of the following ranges):
   • 10.0.x.x - 10.254.x.x
   • 172.16.x.x - 172.31.x.x
   • 192.168.1.x - 192.168.254.x (192.168.5.x and 192.168.51.x - 192.168.53.x are not available to use because it is reserved for Wi-Fi Guest network)​
8. Click the Apply button in the LAN Network Configuration section.  The Progress Bar page will appear.
   
   
    
9. Allow the Progress Bar to complete.  During this time the wireless connection will disconnect briefly and will reconnect.  
   
   NOTE: If the LAN IP address is modified to be in a different subnet (e.g. 192.168.8.1), the SBX-AC1200P will automatically change the DHCP range to use addresses in that subnet.

   • If some devices are manually configured with IP addresses, but others are to receive an address from the SBX-AC1200P, leave this setting checked.
   • If there is another device on the network that will be the DHCP server, uncheck this setting.
   • If it is desired to manually configure each device with an IP address, uncheck this setting.
8. Enter the first IP address to be used in the DHCP range in the Starting Local Address field or leave at default.
