This completes the configuration for private network access. A message appears
indicating that your parameters have been set.
If a connection script is necessary, refer to Chapter 7, "Using a Connection Script,"
for assistance.
If you chose to password-protect the configuration profile of the Dual 56K LAN
Modem and would like to lock and/or change the configuration, refer to
Chapter 7, "Locking and Unlocking the Configuration."
You can now connect up to three more computers and/or printers directly to your
new LAN. To add more than four users using an external hub, refer to
"Connecting an External Hub to the Dual 56K LAN Modem," page 56.
If you are setting up a statically-configured workstation, continue with "Changing
the LAN Modem IP Address for Static IP Users" in this Chapter. If you experience
any other problems, refer to Chapter 10, "Troubleshooting and Maintenance."
If you followed the steps in Chapter 3 "Setting Up Your Computer If You Have a
Static IP Address", and chose to follow the manual procedure, you must now
change the LAN Modem's default IP address to recognize your statically configured
workstation. The following steps explain how this is done.
1 Access the LAN Modem's main page by entering the following URL in your Web
browser: http://3com.oc.lanmodem. Alternatively, you can use the numeric
form of this same IP address: http://192.168.1.1.
2 From the Dual 56K LAN Modem's main configuration page, click the LAN
Parameters icon.
The LAN (Ethernet) Parameters page appears.
3 In the IP Address field, enter your workstation's original Gateway IP address that
you recorded as part of the step sequence under "Setting Up Your Computer If
You Have a Static IP Address."
4 Click Submit.
The Dual 56K LAN Modem resets itself.
5 Quit your Web browser.
6 Reset your workstation back to the original network settings you recorded in
"Setting Up Your Computer If You Have a Static IP Address."
7 Restart your workstation.
This completes the setup procedure for using a statically configured workstation
with the LAN Modem.
Now that you have finished configuring your Dual 56K LAN Modem for private
network access, you can set up additional Service Provider profiles, if you desire.
To configure an additional Service Provider profile for connection to another
private network, repeat Steps 8 through 28 of this section. You will find that the
name you assigned to the present private network profile now appears in the
Service Provider profile list.
