Configuring Your Macintosh Computer

You may find that the instructions here may not exactly match your screen. This is
because these steps was created using Mac OS 8.5. Mac OS 7.x and above are all
very similar, but may not be identical to Mac OS 8.5.

Step 1. Configure TCP/IP Settings

After you have completed the hardware setup by connecting your devices, configure
your computer to connect to your F5D6231-4 Wireless Gateway. Many ISPs issue
these numbers automatically using a networking technology known as Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol, or DHCP. Other ISPs will specify your IP address and
associated numbers, which you must enter manually. This is also known as a static
IP address. How your ISP assigns your IP address determines how you will
configure your computer.
Here is what to do:
1.
Pull down the Apple Menu. Click "Control Panels" and select "TCP/IP."
2.
In the TCP/IP dialog box, make sure that "Ethernet" is selected in the "Connect
via:" field.
If "Using DHCP Server" is already selected in the "Configure" field, your
computer is already configured for DHCP. Close the TCP/IP dialog box, and
skip to Step 2 "Disable HTTP Proxy."
3.
All the information you need to record is in the "TCP/IP" dialog box. Use the
space below to record the information.

"Configure" field and close the window.
