Question

I have Dlink Dir-300 wireless router. I have to set a static ip settings there. I specify Ip as 192.168.242.3 Netmask: 255.255.0.0. When I press enter it says that the ip is invalid. Although such configuration works on another(linksys) router normally.

When setting the static ip I have control only over last 2 bytes, first two are fixed, so we have 192.168.X.X according to our local network structure.

How can this problem be solved?

Was it helpful?

Solution

The netmask should be 255.255.255.0.
