Automatic - The PC is set to be a DHCP client (Windows: "Ob-
tain an IP address automatically"). The WRT-413 will allocate an
IP address to this PC when requested to do so. The IP address
could change, but normally won't.
DCHP Client - Reserved IP Address - Select this if the PC is set
to be a DCHP client, and you wish to guarantee that the WRT-413
will always allocate the same IP Address to this PC.
Enter the required IP address. Only the last field is required; the
other fields must match the WRT-413's IP address.
Fixed IP Address - Select this if the PC is using a Fixed (Static)
IP address. Enter the IP address allocated to the PC. (The PC must
be configured to use this IP address.)
