Statically Assign an IP address

If you are not using a DHCP capable gateway/router, or you need to assign a static IP address, please follow the steps
below:

Step 1
Windows

®

XP - Click on

Start > Control Panel > Network Connections.

Windows

®

2000 - From the desktop, right-click

My Network Places > Properties.

Step 2
Right-click on the

Local Area Connection which represents your D-Link network adapter and select Properties.

Step 3
Highlight

Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties.

Step 4
Click

Use the following IP address and enter an IP address that is on the same subnet as your network or the LAN

IP address on your router.

Example: If the router´s LAN IP address is 192.168.0.1, make your IP address
192.168.0.X where X is a number between 2 and 99. Make sure that the number
you choose is not in use on the network. Set Default Gateway the same as the LAN
IP address of your router (192.168.0.1).

Set Primary DNS the same as the LAN IP address of your router (192.168.0.1). The
Secondary DNS is not needed or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP.

Step 5
Click OK twice to save your settings.
