Windows Clients
This section describes how to configure Windows clients for Internet
access via the Wireless Router.
The first step is to check the PC's TCP/IP settings.
The Wireless Router uses the TCP/IP network protocol for all functions,
so it is essential that the TCP/IP protocol be installed and configured on
each PC.
TCP/IP Settings
Overview
If using the default Wireless Router settings, and the default Windows
TCP/IP settings, no changes need to be made.
By default, the Wireless Router will act as a DHCP Server,
automatically providing a suitable IP Address (and related
information) to each PC when the PC boots.
For all non-Server versions of Windows, the default TCP/IP setting
is to act as a DHCP client.
If using a Fixed (specified) IP address, the following changes are
required:
The Gateway must be set to the IP address of the wireless router.
The DNS should be set to the address provided by your ISP.
Note
If your LAN has a router, the LAN administrator must reconfigure the
router itself.
