Can you change the IP range used by the router?

I plan on installing helix in brdige mode and then just plugging in my network.
I have a complex installation with static ipS. DHCP and a separate 10gbe network.
All my devices are set to the range 192.168.1.1 to 255 but the router is set to 192.168.0.1
I know I need to log in via 10.0.0.1 but can this router allow the address range to be changed?
If not this might be a reason to cancel my helix.
Thanks

Typically, consumer-grade routers have a predefined range for the local IP addresses they assign, often in the 192.168.x.x range. Changing this predefined range is often not possible on consumer routers.

Yes, you can change the IP range used by your router. Access the router's web interface by entering its IP address in a web browser, log in using the provided credentials, and navigate to the network or LAN settings. From there, you can modify the IP range as needed, but specific steps may vary by router model.
