Overdrive Pro 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot user guide - Sprint

From this window, you can view or adjust these settings, or perform the following actions:
● Router IP Address — This is the routing hardware’s IP address on the LAN.
● Subnet Mask — This is the routing hardware’s internal LAN subnet mask.
● Hostname — This is, in essence, a name you’re giving the device. (See “Host Name (Device Name)”
on page 93.)
● Link SSID and Hostname — With this feature you only need to remember one name when selecting
the Wi-Fi network, accessing the browser interface, or accessing the microSD card. (See “Linking
the SSID and the Host Name” on page 88.)
● SSID — This is the name of the Wi-Fi network. (See “SSID (Wi-Fi Network Name)” on page 87.)
● MTU Mode — This specifies whether optimization is used.
� Auto — Optimization is not used.
� Optimized — Optimization is used; this may improve data transmission.
● DHCP Server — This field enables DHCP.
Note: The following settings are displayed only when DHCP is enabled.
● DHCP IP Address Range — This specifies the starting and ending address of the range of IP
addresses available for the device to dynamically (that is, not permanently) assign to computers
connected to it.
● DHCP Lease Time — This is the amount of time, in minutes, a computer can use its assigned IP
address before it is required to renew the lease. After this time is up, the computer is automatically
assigned a new dynamic IP address.
Enter a number between 2 and 10080.
● Max DHCP Clients — This is the number of DHCP addresses that can be assigned and active at one
time. It’s recommended you set this to a number greater than the number of Wi-Fi users.
● DNS Mode — This specifies how the DNS servers (that the DHCP clients are to communicate with)
are obtained.
� Auto — The DNS server specified by Sprint is used. DNS Relay is enabled by default.
� Manual — The routing hardware assigns DHCP clients the DNS servers specified in the Manual
DNS Server #1 and #2 fields.�
Use this option to access a DNS server that provides customized addressing or if you have a
local DNS server on your network.�
If DNS Relay is disabled, the routing hardware rejects DNS requests targeting the internal
DNS proxy.
● Manual DNS Server #1 and #2 — These are the static IP addresses to use for the DNS servers (if
DNS Mode is Manual); available only if DNS Mode is Manual.
● DNS Relay — If enabled, and if DNS Mode (see above) is Manual, the routing hardware assigns
DHCP clients the DNS servers specified in the Manual DNS Server #1 and #2 fields.
If DNS Relay is set to Disable, the routing hardware rejects DNS requests targeting the internal
DNS proxy.
