IP Address
To use the router to access the Internet, the PCs in the network must have an
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 be 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; the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
PCs can be configured to obtain an 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 an
IP address to the PC from between 192.168.2.100 and 192.168.2.200. It is
strongly recommended that IP addresses be set/obtained automatically.
This section explains how to configure a PC so that it can obtain an IP address
automatically for Windows 2000, xP or Vista. For other operating systems
(Macintosh, sun, etc.), follow the manual of that operating system.
