IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have made configuration changes to your Skyline
Wireless Broadband Gateway that do not seem to be working, try hitting the
Reload or Refresh button on your browser.
Configuration checklist
If your local network is NOT using DHCP and does NOT have another router, check
the following settings for each computer:
IP Address ........................................ Make sure that each computer has a unique
IP Address in the same address range as the Skyline Wireless Broadband
Gateway's IP Address. If the Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway uses the
recommended default IP Address of 192.168.0.1, the computers on your local
network must be assigned IP Addresses in the range of 192.168.0.2 to
192.168.0.254.
Network Mask ................................. All computers and the Skyline Wireless
Broadband Gateway must use the same value for the Network Mask. The
recommended default value is 255.255.255.0.
Gateway .......................................... Set the Default Gateway Address to the
Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway's IP Address. The recommended default IP
Address is 192.168.0.1.
DNS (Domain Name Server) Address ................ This should match the DNS
address entered into the DNS IP Address field on the Local Network Port screen
(see "Local Network Port" on page 24).
