By default, the HM210dp/di acts as a DHCP server that automatically
assigns all required Internet settings to your PCs, i.e. the DHCP clients.
The predefined IP address and DHCP range is as below:
LAN Port IP Address 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
DHCP Range 192.168.1.3 – 192.168.1.34
The following instructions assume that your PC meets the following
prerequisites:
1. Already is connected to the LAN port on the HM210dp/di through its
network interface card (NIC).
2. Has the appropriate Ethernet adapter software installed.
3. Has the TCP/IP protocol installed. If not, refer to Microsoft
documentation to install the TCP/IP protocol.
You need only to configure the PCs to accept the information when it is
assigned. Follow the instructions that correspond to the operating system
installed on each PC.
