Question
How do I configure the LAN settings in the TG862?
Answer

The TG862 also includes configurable options for the Local Area Network (LAN).  The LAN IP Address and DHCP range can be configured and modified to suit the needs of the network.  By default, the LAN IP address of the TG862 is 192.168.0.1, and DHCP for the LAN network is enabled.  This document describes how to change the LAN IP address and DHCP range of the TG862.

CAUTION: Modifying these settings will restart the TG862.  Current connections and telephony may be interrupted.
