Configuring Your PC
Before you start to access the router via Ethernet, you must configure your PC's
TCP/IP address to be 192.168.1.x, where x is any number between 2 and 254.
The subnet mask must be 255.255.255.0. Your router's default IP address is
192.168.1.1.
If you used the Ethernet cable to connect your router and PC, you do not need any
specific driver installation and you can skip Windows USB Driver Installation,
below. If you used the USB cable on a PC running a Windows operation system,
install the provided USB driver.
Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 do not support USB without additional software
(not included with your router). If USB driver installation fails under those operating
systems, contact your service provider.
Windows USB Driver Installation
As soon as you connect the USB cable between your PC and the router, Windows
will detect new hardware and the Found New Hardware Wizard will pop up. To
install the USB driver:
Procedure
1. Choose "Install from a list or specific location" and click on Next (Figure 2-2).
