PC Configuration
This Chapter details the PC Configuration required on the local ("Internal")
LAN.
Overview
For each PC, the following may need to be configured:
• TCP/IP network settings
• Internet Access configuration
• Wireless configuration
Windows Clients
This section describes how to configure Windows clients for Internet access via the IAD-200 /
IAD-200W.
The first step is to check the PC's TCP/IP settings.
The IAD-200 / IAD-200W 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 IAD-200 / IAD-200W settings, and the default Windows
TCP/IP settings, no changes need to be made.
• By default, the IAD-200 / IAD-200W 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 VoIP ADSL Router.
• The DNS should be set to the address provided by your ISP.
If your LAN has a Router, the LAN Administrator must re-
configure the Router itself. Refer to Chapter 6 - Advanced
Administration for details.
