Thank you for this info. Based on what you said, I was able to ascertain the XR500 (and many other consumer grade routers) fall under the class C category and only allow subnetting of the last octet? If the above is correct, can you let me know where I can read more about these networking standards, and if there is a good reference for recommended routers that fall within each class? On a slightly related note, can the XR500 handle more than 254 active devices at a time (e.g. a home with many IoT devices)? thank you!!

Hi all, Tried a search and didn't find anything Came in possession of an XR500 recently, hoping to replace my T-mobile / ASUS router. I wanted my IP range to span 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.254 Changed subnet mask to 255.255.254.0 Applied, rebooted, IP range still only supports 254 devices Does the router support ip ranges beyond the final octet?
