Verifying Your TCP/IP Connection

After installing the TCP/IP communication protocols and configuring an IP
address in the same network as the Wireless Base Station, use the Ping
command to check if your computer has successfully connected to the
Wireless Base Station.The following example shows how the Ping
procedure can be executed in an MS-DOS window. First, execute the Ping
command:

ping 192.168.2.1

If a message similar to the following appears:

Pinging 192.168.2.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 192.168.2.1: bytes=32 time=2ms TTL=64

a communication link between your computer and the Wireless Base
Station has been successfully established.
If you get the following message,

Pinging 192.168.2.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.

there may be something wrong in your installation procedure. Check the
following items in sequence:
1. Is the Ethernet cable correctly connected between the Wireless Base

Station and the computer?
The Local Network LED on the Wireless Base Station and the Link LED
of the network card on your computer must be on.

2. Is TCP/IP properly configured on your computer?

If the IP address of the Wireless Base Station is 192.168.2.1, the IP
address of your PC must be from 192.168.2.2 - 192.168.2.254 and the
default gateway must be 192.168.2.1.

If you can successfully Ping the Wireless Base Station you are now ready to
connect to the Internet!
