Changing TCP/IP settings
Note: Most ISPs and private networks use dynamically assigned IP addresses. Unless the ISP or private network does not use
dynamically assigned IP addresses, the TCP/IP settings require no change. If unsure about TCP/IP settings using dynamically
assigned IP addresses, then contact the network administrator.

administrator.

Networks screen, tap the Network Adapters tab. Or, on the Today screen, tap Start > Settings >
Connections tab, and then the Connections icon; tap the Advanced tab, Network Card, and then
the Network Adapters tab.
4. On the Configure Network Adapters screen, in the My network card connects to drop-down box,
tap either The Internet (the network uses no proxy server) or Work (network uses a proxy server).
