Below are the instructions on how to change the LAN IP Range on your Sharedband Netgear Routers.

This will need to be done on ALL Sharedband Routers.

Step 1

Log onto the web interface (http://192.168.0.x - where x is the node number), username/password is admin/password

Step 2

Click 'Network Settings' (under advanced)

Update the 'IP Address' and change the 'DHCP Range' (where needed), then click 'Apply', the router will then ask for a reboot (click reboot).

Step 3

Once the router has rebooted, Login to the router on it's new IP (you may need to update your IP manually or with a DHCP release & renew), click 'Configuration' (under Sharedband).

Change the 'Virtual router address' to be in the new Subnet you have used in Step 2, Make sure you use the same IP on every router for the Virtual Router Address, then click 'Save', the router will then ask for a reboot (click reboot).

Sharedband uses VRRP to provide a common default gateway IP for the network. If one of your Sharedband routers fails then another router will automatically bring up the VRRP IP address and everything continues to work without changing the configuration on your network equipment.
You will need to configure your equipment to use the VRRP address as the default gateway or change the VRRP address to match your old default gateway.

The VRRP address needs to be the same on all Sharedband routers.

Step 4

Repeat steps 1 - 3 for each Sharedband Router, when complete all routers will now be on the new IP Range, if you get any issue's please Raise A Ticket.
