If you have not been provided any IP settings from your ISP/service provider, you can
directly access the Internet by using a web browser.
If your ISP/service provider has provided you with IP settings (for instance IP address,
subnet mask and default gateway), and/or explicitly stated that DHCP is not used, you
have to change your PCs network configuration before you can access the Internet.
Follow the steps below to change your PCs network configuration:

the Properties button.

ISP/service provider. Click OK.
5 Click OK in the "Network" dialog box and close the Control Panel.
