Even if the DHCP is turned off, the router will give an error if it is not set to use the same subnet as the router IP. It shouldn't be a problem, I know, but it is. It's just an over zelous error checking routine I imagine. Just set DHCP to the new subnet first and then set the IP subnet and it should be fine. It was either that or set them both at the same time, but enter the info in the DHCP boxes first. I can't remember which method worked. You can then turn of DHCP if you aren't using it for some reason.
