Configuring the TCP/IP
Protocol on a Windows PC
If you have a PC running Windows 95 or
later, you need to make sure the TCP/IP
communications protocol is installed on
your system before you install your cable
modem. The listing of actual components
installed on your PC depends on the
hardware installed in your computer. The
installation example in this guide assumes a
3Com EtherLink III 3C509B-TPO NIC
has been installed and the screen images
shown below reflect this hardware
configuration. Other networking cards will
work but the screen images will look
somewhat different.
