Getting Started - D-Link DI-824VUP User Manual

Getting Started

With its default settings, the DI-824VUP will connect with other
D-Link Air or AirPlus products, right out of the box.
With a single IP Address from your Broadband Internet Service provider you
can share the Internet with all the computers on your local network, without
sacrificing speed or security, using D-Link Air networking products.
Note: If you are using a DHCP-capable router in your network setup, such
as the DI-824VUP, you will not need to assign a static IP Address.
If you need to assign IP Addresses to the computers on the network, please
remember that the IP Address for each computer must be in the same
IP Address range as all the computers in the network, and the Subnet
Mask must be exactly the same for all the computers in the network.
For example: If the first computer is assigned an IP Address of 192.168.0.2
with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, then the second computer can be
assigned an IP Address of 192.168.0.3 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0,
etc.
IMPORTANT: If computers or other devices are assigned the same IP
Address, one or more of the devices may not function properly on
the network.
