What do DHCP and Static mean on a Linksys router?

DHCP mode let's the router tell each machine on the network what's its IP address is. Static IP let's the user tell the machine and the router a specific IP to use.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) in the tech world is a service program that gives out or assigns and maintains unique I.P. Address (Internet Protocol Address) to other networked devices. It is that address that allows them to communicate with other devices on the same subnet or network realm. Without DHCP you would have to manually address all your network devices.The Static just means that you would like to control address assignment rather than have the device do it for you automatically.

Cisco Small Business Switches do not support DHCP. I repeat do not support DHCP. Its a smart switch not a router... I have several of them. They are the best bang for the buck. And any feature they have you can disable, and there are a lot of them. But DHCP is not a feature.

Verify the DNS settings on the router are either on DHCP mode or an actual dns is set. I like using AT&T;'s DNS, 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2

Yes I believe the best way is to simply select bridge mode under dhcp server settings this allows the router to automatically set various other things as to be sure no conflicts and allows use of all four wired connects instead of just 3. Also has a repeater mode.

You can isolate the clients that are connected too the ap and the dhcp is from the router

There are tunnel protocols that may not function. These are able to pick up and configure to "extend" an existing link. I have a single unit working as an access point off a DLINK wrt and hadn't seen any problems.

Interesting question, not sure. The unit Wi-Fi operates at 2.4Ghz so if you have an older Linksys "G" router I don't see why you couldn't set up an intranet Vs. using the Internet for local closed circuit viewing. The Owner Manual is on the Uniden web page as a PDF and it should have the info you need for that. you may need to use a separate router for just that but I don't see why not, after all it is 2.4Ghz, if you open a port it may to the trick...., huh, good question.

I use Linksys E-Series and turn dhcp off and apply the uplink cable to a numbered port and not the uplink port - this is working for me but please use this info as a direction to go and do some homework

Not sure what you're asking....can it get it's management IP from DHCP, yes. It's 100% purely a L2 switch, not an L3 router. It can also do *limited* "trusted port" settings where only certain ports are allowed to answer DHCP requests (IE have only port 2 and 3 allowed ot have the DHCP server).

Ken, Since I don't know the answer, check out linksys.com/support and I hope this helps out. I am using the linksys E1200 router.

The system is designed to use an external DHCP and router. Software controller is not required for day-to-day operation. Only for making changes to the APs. There are logs and info that can be obtained by continuous running of the software.

Your cable provider will Issue IP and DHCP. PW is meant for your wireless router. Hopefully that helps.

Linksys wrt54g wireless router has 10/100Mb/s Ethernet switch ports. The SE2800 switch will connect with the router at 100Mb/s, not Gigabit 1000Mb/s speeds. The rest of the SE2800 ports are available to operate at Gigabit speeds when connected to Gigabit devices.

Good question. I've just set it up to match the settings of my Netgear WGR514 v9, but can't tell if my laptop is using the Netgear or the Linksys Range Extender...

Yes, if using in Ethernet Bridge mode, they will each either accept a static IP address, or will get one from your local DHCP server. They'll scan the wireless channels until they find the AP (or you can specify the AP to use) of your network.

MY camera is set with a Static address and I use DynDns to see it from the Net

Hi Matthew. If you disable the router's DHCP server, it will function as a plain wireless access point and you will have to plug it to an existing router so that devices will be able to get online to the WRT1900AC. You will get the same result if configure the router as a wireless bridge. http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=41965db5d1074957b8033a388583dafc_Configuring_the_Linksys_WRT1900AC_as_a_Wireless_Bridge.xml&pid=80&respid=0&snid=1&dispid=0&cpage=search
