4. IP Address Setting

If you lost the CD-ROM or you prefer the traditional web setup, please follow the

procedures of chapter 4 and chapter 5 to configure the router.

Using the router to

get into the Internet, the PCs in the network must have Ethernet adapter installed

and be connected to the router either directly or through a hub or switch. The

TCP/IP protocol of each PC has to been installed and the IP Address of each PC

has to be set in the same subnet as the router.

The router’s default IP Address is 192.168.2.1 and the subnet mask is

255.255.255.0. PCs can be configured to obtain IP Address automatically

through the DHCP Server of the router or a fixed IP Address in order to be in the

same subnet as the router. By default, the DHCP Server of the router is enabled

and will dispatch IP Address to PC from 192.168.2.100 to 192.168.2.200. It is

strongly recommended to set obtaining IP address automatically.

address automatically for either Windows 95/98/Me, 2000 or NT operating
