4. Confi guring the software and the computer
After you have successfully installed the network adapter, you still have to install or confi gure a protocol. This
protocol governs the data exchange between the computer and the network. TCP/IP is most common. Each
computer has to be assigned its own address for the protocol. Automatic address assignment is only reliable
if a DHCP server exists in the network, e.g. a router or access point. If you have one of these devices with a
DHCP function, you should leave the setting on "Get automatically".
Proceed as follows to check the settings on your PC:
Start => Settings => Control Panel => Network connections
Select the connection (network adapter) via which your PC is connected to the router, e.g. "LAN connection".
When you right-click the corresponding connection, a menu is displayed in which you select Properties.
Select the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) entry in the list and click Properties.
Select Obtain an IP address automatically and Obtain DNS server address automatically, if there is a DHCP
server in your network! Confi rm by clicking OK, and again in the subsequent window.
Your PC is now confi gured such that the router assigns the IP address automatically.
The signal strength and corresponding information on
your confi guration should now be displayed here. You
can now close the confi guration tool The activated
profi le is run automatically after a restart.
