4.3 Configuring TCP/IP
Here are instructions on how to manually configure TCP/IP on a Windows operating system. You need to set
the TCP/IP settings manually to access the Web User Interface and to allow your computer and HomePlug
Wireless Adapter to communicate with each other.
Notes: If you are using a non-Windows operating system, please refer to the operating system’s documentation about how to change
the TCP/IP settings.
To set the TCP/IP properties:
1. Select Start > Run. This opens the Run dialog box.
2. Enter control ncpa.cpl and then click OK. This opens Network Connections.
3. Right-click Local Area Network (LAN) and then select Properties.
4. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and then click Properties. This opens the Internet Protocol
dialog box.
5. Select Use the following IP address.
6. Enter the IP Address to be used. You can enter any IP address between 192.168.1.2 to
192.168.1.253.
7. Click Subnet mask. When you click the field for Subnet mask, 255.255.255.0
automatically appears.
8. Click OK to close the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) dialog box.
9. Click OK to close the Local Area Connection Properties dialog box.
