Obtaining ISP Configuration Information (Macintosh)

As mentioned above, you may need to collect configuration information from your Macintosh so
that you can use this information when you configure the Model RT311 and RT314 routers.

account information.
To get the information you need to configure the router for Internet access:
From the Apple menu, select Control Panels, then TCP/IP.

"Configure" setting is "Using DHCP Server", your account uses a dynamically-assigned IP
address. In this case, close the Control Panel and skip the rest of this section.
