Setting a different range of IP addresses

The Orbi router when used in Router mode and as a DHCP server has pretty much the standard controls for address assignment. You can set the range for what DHCP will use as well as assign IP addresses to specific devices. It is all on the Advanced.. Setup.. Lan Setup.. tab.
UPDATE: Nevermind, found it. Ignore this post (I would delete it but there doesn't appear to be a way to do that).
I have the latest firmware (V2.1.4.16), but there is no "Lan Setup" on the Advanced setup page, so there appears to be no way to set the DHCP range. Anybody else seeing this? Am I missing something??

Glad you found it. :smileywink:
I think I ran into the same issue when I initially set the system up. I think I forgot to check the box that set the Orbi as a DHCP server, but once the box was checked I was able to see the DHCP address range option.

On the Advanced Tab, select "Setup", and "LAN Setup" is one of the choices under it.
